    may be you can use javascript confirm box to proceed with the request or not
    fyi the confirm box returns true or false.

    oh sorry.. i thought you are talking about the possible spams.
    yep.. why not use confirm box. or instead of type="submit" replace it with onDoubleClick="submit the form function"
