<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
function submitForm() {
document.haselect.xxx.value = "Please Wait...";
document.haselect.xxx.disabled = "disabled";
return true;
}
//-->
</script>
<FORM name="haselect" action="index.cfm" method="post"
onsubmit="submitForm();">
<INPUT name="xxx" type=submit value="NEXT >>">
