Use jquery to add an event handler that detects clicks. When a click occurs, stop the browser. Let me know if you need code.

I think it would be as simple as adding a required validator to your element to see if the user selected anything.

Does your TextBox have AutoPostBack="True" set? If so, it will automatically postback when you're "finished" (when the input control loses focus). If this is the case, just set it to false.
