double Click

[Grant]

I am wondering what is the surest way to prevent user from double clicking
on a button and in this case it is a deposit button. Sometime the user is
impatient after clicking on the button so they would click on it again which
would double charge on the credit cards.

Hi Grant,

Several alternatives:

1. Handle the second click on the server - Figure out a way to know whether
the button has been clicked already, and don't respond to a second.
2. Disable the button after the first click using client-side JavaScript.

3. Redirect the use to a processing page : )

I use Sessions to prevent users to do so:
If Session("clicked") = "" Then

Session("clicked") = "something"

'Your button_click code goes here

End If
