Hi,
I have a server side form button with id btnsubmit
As the form is big, the submission process is slow.
A user may click on the button many times, I want to prevent that by
client-side code.

I made this function:

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
function Disable()
{
document.getElementById("btnSubmit").disabled = true;
}
</script>

then in the button server html I added OnClientClick=""

<asp:Button ID="btnSubmit" runat="server" CssClass="Body"
OnClick="btnSubmit_Click"
Text="Save And Continue!"
OnClientClick="Disable();" />

But the result was that the button is disabled once I click it and doesn't
make its server side code duties.

Any Help Please...

1/u can change the click event to doubleclick event; ----
client-side
2/u can set the buttom enable = false in the onclick event;
---server-side

May be my question was not clear.

I do want the both server and client actions to occur with button click.

The problem is:
When the server side action is alone it occurs.
After I add the OnClientClick attribute, client side action occurs but
server side action stops working.

Hi Bishoy,

When you disable an asp button with client script it prevent the server side on click event from firing. What you need to do is to fire the onclick event of the button first before disabling the button. (view snippet below)


<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
function Disable()

<%=Page.GetPostBackEventReference(btnSubmit as Control)%>
document.getElementById('<%=btnSubmit.ClientID%>').disabled = true;
}
</script>
