    Hi,

    Please help how to ensure a FORM is only submitted once?
    this.submitted is already true, why do we still need disableSubmit(this)?

    Thanks. :confused:

    Why would want to do so?
    You should rather check on the server side the entries!
    Otherwise you could use cookies with javascript to check this; this way you track when a user submit a form once or twice on the client side.

    you can use JS to enable/disable submit button, but if I disable JS , I can submit forever to that page
