Disable link onclick

[bullboss]

Hi im trying to make a link disabled after someone have clicked on it?

How do i do it

What does the link do?

Normally, a link will take you to another page. If that happens, there won't be a link to disable, or any way to remember that it was clicked. If they come back to the page with the link, the only way you can tell if it was clicked would be to use a cookie.

The link makes a submit

document.the_form.submit()

if i click on the link fast it vill make more than one submit and its that i want to stop

<script>
var submitted = false;
</script>
...
<a href="..."
onclick="if(!submitted){document.the_form.submit()}else{submitted=true;}return false" ...>
