Description

We had multiple customers who ran into this pitfall:
  • When an editor creates a content element and hits the "save" button, this action may take multiple seconds to complete, while no visual feedback is given.
  • Now if the user gets nervous or unsure about the status and clicks "save" again, he will unknowingly end up with a duplicate content element - which leads to certain confusion and annoyance.

Therefore, some sort of prevention would be highly appreciated. (Probably also not a big deal, right?)
See http://www.the-art-of-web.com/javascript/doublesubmit/ for ideas if needed :)

Cheers
Ekke
