Hi,
Thanks for your help Frédéric. Here are some details and answers about our
problem.
As Arthur explained, we can see a real correlation between requests repeated in
koha_opac_access.log and the CPU load to 100% which blocks totally Koha.
We are not sure that this behavior is only due to a repeated click on 'go'
button, but perhaps it's due to a prolonged press on the "enter" key, or to
some old or dirty keyboard where enter key is stuck with an undetermined
substance (I don't want to know which one..)
So, for the moment we have had jquery code in opacuserjs :
// multi soumission Enter
var submitted;
$('#translControl1').bind('keyup',function() {
submitted = false;
});
$('#translControl1').bind('keydown',function(event) {
code = event.keyCode||event.which||event.charCode||event.char||0;
if(code == 13) {
if (submitted == false) {
submitted = true;
$('#searchform').submit();
} else {
event.preventDefault();
event.returnValue = false;
return false;
}
}
});
But, you said that it could make sense to integrate this in koha code. If this
is not added in masthead.inc (in the very button element), do you mean it would
be necessary to add it at the page level and in which include file ?
Thanks in advance,
Sonia

Objet : RE: [Koha-devel] Disabling multiple submission on search form
Hi Frederic,
We are not sure but all those requests from same IP with same query in such a
few seconds gives us some confidence in this scenario.
I just opened a bug ticket:
https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=15855
Attached to it is an extract of koha-opac-access_log for better understanding
of the issue.
Also tested your code, works great on Chrome, IE11 and Firefox!
Regards,
Arthur

Are you sure your users are doing that? Koha server can lag severely for other
reasons...

Rather than modifying direcly masthead.inc, you could do it with a JavaScript
snippet placed in opacuserjs system preference:
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#searchform').submit(function() {
$('#searchsubmit').prop('disabled',true).text('searching...');
});
});
It could make sense to integrate this to Koha code base: open a bug ticket.
