Well, that's kinda hard to do. You should start by looking at the
session management functions of PHP. Then, track your sessions by
creating a table in a database. Then, once you are doing that...you
will have a session id associated with any individual using your
website. Once that individual submits an entry, save the session id
with the order and don't allow them to submit another order since their
session id is already stored.
-OR-
If you only want them to be able to submit ONE ORDER EVER, then create a
cookie on their computer (that lasts for a year) once they have
completed the transaction and check for the cookie every time someone
tries to submit an order. IF the cookie exists, then prevent the order
from processing.
Hope this helps.
