You should return false when OK:

$("#myform").submit(function (event) {
    if (something) {
        var $dialog = $('
').dialog({
            buttons: {
                "OK": function () {
                    $dialog.dialog('close');
                    $("#myform").submit();
                    return false; // <=== not just return;
                },
                Cancel: function () {
                    $(this).dialog("close");
                }
            }
        });
        $dialog.dialog('open');
        event.preventDefault();
        return false;
    } else {
        $("#myform").submit();
    }
});

Or delete the manual submit:

buttons: {
"OK": function () {
    $dialog.dialog('close');
    //$("#myform").submit();  <-- delete it
    return;
},
