Prevent double submit with jQuery
Another great “little” solution with jQuery. Needed a simple way to protect all the forms on our site from being double submitted. There was an attempted solution in place on our app, that added an onsubmit to every form with a function above it called ignoreDoubleSubmit that tried to trap the event of the button was clicked and not allow it to be clicked again. The problem was the event for the button wasn’t present when the form was submitted so it would silently error out with a blink in the Firebug console. After weeks of fighting to have it fixed, I removed the code and reimplemented a working solution with jQuery
