need some help regarding query protocol on internet


There is a protocol in use - for example when I use Firefox to do a query through Google - as I type into the search field the browser sends my characters - one at a time - to the server. As I recall, at one time I found the specification but I'm pulling a blank. As I recall it does a POST of each character as I enter it, and the server responds before I have entered a <CR>.

Can someone point me to a description of that protocol.

I want to write a client side program that uses that protocol and need to see the spec.
