Button Handling Question - Time Critical

You could try to hack it 😊

Add a new button which is set to enabled in an invisble div on the same places as the first. Placee the old button also in a div which is visible

Then when the button is clicked, swap visibility.

The following code shows how to use client side scripting with HTMLB in order to avoid subsequent "submits" of a form by clicking a button more than once.

It does so by setting a flag after a button was clicked. On each subsequent click the script checks whether or not the form was already submitted and cancels the submit accordingly. In contrast to disabling a button this solution has the benefit that one can avoid the submit of this form from any other control as well (e.g. by another button) since the flag can be checked from everywhere.

HTMLFragment html = new HTMLFragment("<script>var xxxSubmit=true;</script>");

myForm.addComponent(html);

Button myButton = new Button("myButton", "click me!");

myButton.setOnClick("onButtonClick");

myButton.setOnClientClick(

"if(xxxSubmit==true)

{

xxxSubmit=false;

return true;

}

else

{

htmlbevent.cancelSubmit=true;

return false;}

");

myForm.addComponent(myButton);
