I want to be able to update a database using a form without refreshing the page. It's only two items I want to update, and have no issues with updating the information on the page manually using javascript while the database gets updated in the background.

Any ideas? I've been looking into AJAX but all the examples are very complex compared to what I need.
 
If you don't refresh the page or do a callback or submit a form, you must use AJAX or a variant thereof. There are no alternatives aside from coding your own API.

AJAX is not all that complex if you take your time and dig into the tutorials out there. You can probably start here.

Good luck!
