Submit Form to change data

Hi!
I'm wondering how to use a form that will alter the data in the table with server-side processing, much like the filter / search function currently works.
For example, if my datatable has FirstName, LastName, and State, I have my server-side set up to search through all three fields when someone enters text in the search. What I'd like to have is a drop-down for "state" that will call the server-side when it's changed to only show entries from that state.
I've looked at the form example - http://www.datatables.net/examples/api/form.html - but that's not robust enough to help me figure this out.
Let me know if I should provide code or if that's enough info.
Thanks!
