Excuse me... maybe you can help me... All of a sudden I'm getting like 80 or
more emails a day from people and they all seem to have  the houseoffusion
in common. What IS this.... and where in the world did all these emails come
from?  Thanks for your assistance.

using a button) and then disable it, however, this doesn't work with all
browsers. If you're talking about credit card processing, you need to be
more careful, obviously, so the user doesn't submit twice or more.

doesn't prevent them from clicking on other buttons, links, or even closing
their browser, but it does give them a visual clue that something is going
on.
