You could prevent the user from clicking the link many times thru
javascript.
The following code is to prevent submitting the form many times. U could
modify it for the menu option.
I got it from javascript.internet.com.
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!-- This script and many more are available free online at -->
<!-- The JavaScript Source!! http://javascript.internet.com -->
<!-- Begin
var submitcount=0;
function reset() {
document.emailform.name.value="";
document.emailform.email.value="";
document.emailform.comments.value="";
}
function checkFields() { // field validation -
if ( (document.emailform.name.value=="") || // checks if fields are
blank.
(document.emailform.email.value=="") || // More validation scripts at
(document.emailform.comments.value=="") ) // forms.javascriptsource.com
{
alert("Please enter your name, email, and comments then re-submit this
form.");
return false;
}
else
{
if (submitcount == 0)
{
submitcount++;
return true;
}
else
{
alert("This form has already been submitted. Thanks!");
return false;
}
}
}
// End -->
</script>
Hope this helped
