Prevent double click on HTML

Question

i want to prevent my users from double clicking on submit button. Can some one tell me how to prevent it for & in HTML

Use `.one()` if you only want the event to trigger once or define a flag that prevents a submit button click until the previous click has been processed (validation, ajax etc). — Joe, Apr 06 '15 at 15:43

If you're just trying to prevent an action when a user double clicks, use the .dblclick() function.

$("submit").dblclick(function(e) {
    e.preventDefault();
});

If you're trying to make it so that a form is only submitted the first time the button is pressed, then use the .one() function somewhat like this:

$("submit").one("click", function(){$("#yourformid").submit();$(this).attr("disabled","disabled");});
