$.fn.debounceSubmit

jQuery plugin to stop double-clicks from submitting forms multiple times.

Description

After a form is submitted, this plugin will disable it for 750 milliseconds to prevent duplicate form submits. After the 750 millisecond wait the form will be re-enabled (This is important if some one uses "Esc" to stop a form submit from completing)

Example Usage

$('form').debounceSubmit(); // Applies to all forms
$('#payment-form').debounceSubmit(); // Applies to #payment-form
$('#another-payment-form').debounceSubmit({
  wait: 500
});

Options

• wait: (Number, Default: 750) The amount of time (in milliseconds) between when the form is disabled and when it is re-enabled
• debug: (Boolean, Default: false) Enable/Disable console.logs() for submit handler being enabled, disabled, & prevented

Real Life Example

Before

Clicking the submit button multiple times causes the form to make several partial/canceled requests to the server that result in a tax calculation error during checkout

After

Clicking the submit button multiple times only allows one successfull submit to happen
