populate fields from db

How can I populate other fields from a user option selection? All info is
already in a db. My select code is below. Thanks.

<select name="eventname"
onChange="goType(this.options[this.selectedIndex].value);">
<option value="">Select Physician</option>

<%
sql = "SELECT * from Calendars order by EventName"
Set rs = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
rs.Open sql, conn, 3, 3
do while not rs.eof
%>
<option name="eventname" value="<%=rs("eventname")%>"><%= rs("eventname")
%></option>

<%
rs.movenext
Loop
%>
<%
rs.close
set rs = nothing
%>
</select>

Explain "populate other fields from a user option selection"

Your code displays all records' rs("eventname")%, as options and the JavaScript function goType does something w/ the selection by
user

What I desire is to have 3 other fields auto filled in from a table when user
selects from 'eventname'?

The easiest way to accomplish this, is to have the user make selection on one page and then post to
another page to populates these additional fields
