I did something similar to that to dynamically show selected images and
dimension / filesize info relating to the image as they were selected from a
list by dropping search results into two embedded iframes just above the
select menu.
I was hoping there might be a simpler DHTML type way of just adding a bit of
alt text onto it, it shouldn't really be expecting a server side response to
do something thats essentially as simple as this.

This web 2.0 concept is very good, but it seems that all it means is you
bang your head into the obsolete spec that is HTML!
