[pmwiki-users] Pressing Save twice in a row results in a warning messag

[DaveG]

The way I've managed this on other systems is to disable the button 
after it's been clicked. That prevents the user clicking twice in the 
first place -- some users are just in the habit of double clicking 
everything.

Of course, this brings a problem if the user really does need to 
resubmit, but from my own experience, this happens less than the double 
click.
