Instead of trying to disable every element that can trigger a form submission, I stop the form submission event itself. Here is the JavaScript I have been using, and it seems to be working for me:
document.observe("dom:loaded", function() { $$("form").invoke("observe", "submit", function(event) { if (this.submitted) { event.stop(); } else { this.submitted = true; }; }); }); Benny On Fri, Dec 10, 2010 at 2:43 PM, David Rees <dree...@gmail.com> wrote: > On Thu, Dec 9, 2010 at 2:57 PM, Benny Law <benny.mk....@gmail.com> wrote: > > Keep in mind that a form could be submitted by pressing the Enter key > inside > > a text field.
