come up with a solution to double-clicking on a form button issue.

Isn't there a javascript method that you could use to accomplish the
same thing? Either that, or on the first click, you could disable that
button.
JavaScript can't be used for such things, or at least it can't be relied
upon. What if the user has disabled JavaScript? Or what if the user has
specifically disabled the JavaScript behaviour you are relying on?
For example, some websites very wrongly try to disable right-clicking on
webpages. Firefox provides an option (I'm not sure if it is enabled by
default) that prevents pages from disabling right-click. So using said
JavaScript code to disable right-clicks is not a valid way of preventing
people from viewing page source or downloading files. The same would
apply to any other security measure; it'd be just fine to use JavaScript
to discourage multiple clicks, but it wouldn't solve the underlying
problem; he'd still have to solve the problem on the backend.
