hi Liam, I followed given link but there is no any option to disable browser reload button, they suggest to add confirm message like you want to reload or not? — Satish Gidhad, Oct 11 '18 at 09:53
@SatishGidhad The link provided was for a question which was the same as your but just worded differently - thus any solutions given for that question apply to your situation as well — Karan Shishoo, Oct 11 '18 at 09:59

Unfortunately (more likely fortunately) you cannot disable the refresh button on a page.

What you can do instead is you can warn the user not to refresh your page and inform them of the consequences of doing so. This is common practice as seen on multiple web pages which process online payments.
