Is it possible to link AJAX autocomplete to server-side event handler?

I am developing an ASP.NET Web Forms application in C#.

In my product reservation process I am using the ASP.NET AJAX autocomplete extender to retrieve serial codes of the products based on what the users digit.

Once a serial is selected I would like to automatically fill in also the TextBoxes for ProductName and ProductPrice to be retrieved from a database. That can be easily done on server-side by calling an event handler.

However it looks like there are no server-side events fired by the AJAX autocomplete extender. I found some client-side event but I have no clue on how to call a server-side function from Javascript.

I was suggested to use a new Javascript framework (Node.js) that interacts directly with the database but I have no experience with it.

Anybody can help? Thanks
