I agree, something like this works pretty well, but you still need to
check for resubmits, if resubmitting must not be allowed at all.
<script language="JavaScript">
function SubmitForm(){
document.getElementById('sub').disabled = true;
document.forms['msgform'].submit();
return true;
}
</script>
<form action="..." method="post" name="msgform" id="msgform">
...
<input id="sub" type="submit" onclick="SubmitForm();"
name="param_submit" value="Submit This Form" />
</form>
Michael.
