Prevent double submission of forms in jQuery

Question

I have a form that takes a little while for the server to process. I need to ensure that the user waits and does not attempt to resubmit the form by clicking the button agai

Answer 1

Please, check out jquery-safeform plugin.

Usage example:

$('.safeform').safeform({
    timeout: 5000,  // disable next submission for 5 sec
    submit: function() {
        // You can put validation and ajax stuff here...

        // When done no need to wait for timeout, re-enable the form ASAP
        $(this).safeform('complete');
        return false;
    }
});
