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

My solution:

// jQuery plugin to prevent double submission of forms
$.fn.preventDoubleSubmission = function () {
    var $form = $(this);

    $form.find('[type="submit"]').click(function () {
        $(this).prop('disabled', true);
        $form.submit();
    });

    // Keep chainability
    return this;
};
