desperate for help with not refreshing page

desperate for help with not refreshing page

i've been trying to solve this on my own for over a week, i'm no expert and have read tutorial after tutorial but i'm at dead end and ready to give up.
 
i have a search form that a user selects item from dynamic list hits the submit button and it returns each matching result on same page in an update form, i have 2 checkboxes in update form that updates the DB when 1  is checked, this all  works fine until i check  the checkbox the data updates ok but all remaining update forms are removed because the page refreshes.
 
so i need to update formst with out page refreshing but i cant get it to work with multiple forms on same page
 
  1. <body>
    <form id="form1" name="form1" method="post" action="searchresults.php">
      <label for="team"></label>
      <select name="team" id="team">
        <?php
    do { 
    ?>
        <option value="<?php echo $row_Recordset1['TeamID']?>"><?php echo $row_Recordset1['TeamName']?></option>
        <?php
    } while ($row_Recordset1 = mysql_fetch_assoc($Recordset1));
      $rows = mysql_num_rows($Recordset1);
      if($rows > 0) {
          mysql_data_seek($Recordset1, 0);
       $row_Recordset1 = mysql_fetch_assoc($Recordset1);
      }
    ?>
      </select>
      <input type="submit" name="search" id="search" value="Submit" />
    </form>
    <p><?php echo $_POST['team'] ?>&nbsp;</p>
    <p>
      <?php  echo print_r($_POST);  ?>
    </p>
    <p>&nbsp;</p>
    <?php























  2.  
     do { ?>
     
      <form id="form2" name="form2" method="POST" action="<?php echo $editFormAction; ?>">
        <label for="player"></label>
        <input <?php if (!(strcmp($row_rsTeamselect['playing'],1))) {echo "checked=\"checked\"";} ?> name="play" type="checkbox" id="play" value="1" onclick="this.form.submit()" />
        <input <?php if (!(strcmp($row_rsTeamselect['sub'],1))) {echo "checked=\"checked\"";} ?> name="sub" type="checkbox" id="sub" value="1"  onclick="this.form.submit()"/>
        <input name="squadnum" type="text" id="squadnum" value="<?php echo $row_rsTeamselect['squadnumber']; ?>" />
        <input name="player" type="text" id="player" value="<?php echo $row_rsTeamselect['playername']; ?>" />
        <label for="squadnum"></label>
        <label for="play"></label>
        <label for="sub"></label>
        <input type="hidden" name="MM_update" value="form2" />
      </form>
      <?php } while ($row_rsTeamselect = mysql_fetch_assoc($rsTeamselect)); ?>
    <p>&nbsp;</p>
