having a slight problem with an ASP.net page of mine. If a user were to double click on a "submit" button it will write to the database twice (i.e. carry out the 'onclick' method on the imagebutton twice)
How can I make it so that if a user clicks on the imagebutton, just the imagebutton is disabled?
I've tried:
<asp:ImageButton runat="server" ID="VerifyStepContinue" ImageUrl=image src ToolTip="Go" TabIndex="98" CausesValidation="true" OnClick="methodName" OnClientClick="this.disabled = true;" /> But this OnClientClick property completely stops the page from being submitted! Any help?
Sorry, yes, I do have Validation controls... hence the icky problem.
Working on this still, up to this point now:
ASP code:
<asp:TextBox ID="hidToken" runat="server" Visible="False" Enabled="False"></asp:TextBox> ... <asp:ImageButton runat="server" ID="InputStepContinue" Name="InputStepContinue" ImageUrl="imagesrc" ToolTip="Go" TabIndex="98" CausesValidation="true" OnClick="SubmitMethod" OnClientClick="document.getElementById('InputStepContinue').style.visibility='hidden';" /> C# code:
private Random random = new Random(); protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) { //Use a Token to make sure it has only been clicked once. if (Page.IsPostBack) { if (double.Parse(hidToken.Text) == ((double)Session["NextToken"])) { InputMethod(); } else { // double click } } double next = random.Next(); hidToken.Text = next + ""; Session["NextToken"] = next; Actually... this nearly works. The double click problem is pretty much fixed (yay!) The image still isn't hidden though.

I have the following code for avoiding the double clic: jQuery. fn. preventDoubleSubmit = function () { var alreadySubmitted = false; return jQuery(this).
If you want to disable any mouse click action use addEventListener(event, function, useCapture) . Onclick ,call this function.
The general approach is twofold.
Serverside:
System.Random), save it in the session, and write it to a hidden form fieldClientside:
Similar to what you have, but probably just hide the button, and replace it with some text like 'submitting'.
The important thing to note, client side, is that the user may cancel the post by hitting 'escape', so you should consider what to do here (depending on how far along they are the token won't be used, so you'll need to bring the button back from being disabled/hidden).
Complete example follows:
C# (includes code to see it in action):
<html> <head runat="server"> <title>double-click test</title> <script language="c#" runat="server"> private Random random = new Random(); private static int TEST = 0; public void Page_Load (object sender, EventArgs ea) { SetToken(); } private void btnTest_Click (object sender, EventArgs ea) { if( IsTokenValid() ){ DoWork(); } else { // double click ltlResult.Text = "double click!"; } } private bool IsTokenValid () { bool result = double.Parse(hidToken.Value) == ((double) Session["NextToken"]); SetToken(); return result; } private void SetToken () { double next = random.Next(); hidToken.Value = next + ""; Session["NextToken"] = next; } private void DoWork () { TEST++; ltlResult.Text = "DoWork(): " + TEST + "."; } </script> </head> <body> <script language="javascript"> var last = null; function f (obj) { obj.src = "http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/4659883ec420f39723c3df6ed99971b9?s=32&d=identicon&r=PG"; // Note: Disabling it here produced strange results. More investigation required. last = obj; setTimeout("reset()", 1 * 1000); return true; } function reset () { last.src = "http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/495ce8981a5127a9fd24bd72e7e3664a?s=32&d=identicon&r=PG"; last.disabled = "false"; } </script> <form id="form1" runat="server"> <asp:HiddenField runat="server" ID="hidToken" /> <asp:ImageButton runat="server" ID="btnTest" OnClientClick="return f(this);" ImageUrl="http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/495ce8981a5127a9fd24bd72e7e3664a?s=32&d=identicon&r=PG" OnClick="btnTest_Click" /> <pre>Result: <asp:Literal runat="server" ID="ltlResult" /></pre> </form> </body> </html> If you love us?
