What I do is the following: 1) Set a session variable on the page that will submit the form, usually called session.frm_submit, and set it to 1.
2) Create a CFIF on the page the form submits to that checks the value of the session variable, and, if it is 1, sets it to 0 then processes the submission. If the value is already 0, the submission is ignored. This means the user would have to go back to the form page and reload it completely in order to submit the form twice.
