Answer 1

Button disabled during submit/click event doesn't submit its value

As per Alan Stewart, I had this problem introduced when I wrote a little utility to prevent double-clicking a form submit button which listened for "submit" and disabled the button.

I changed my code so it determines if the form has already been submitted, and if so, disables the button and prevents the form submitting via event.preventDefault().

It's not as nice as before which immediately disabled the button which gave instant visual feedback (since Bootstrap has a style for disabled buttons).
