[Javascript] code: disable & re-enable button

Here it is: In the <form> tag of the main page: onsubmit="this.btnSubmit.disabled = true;" Doing it in the form tag was necessary because doing it in the onclick of the button cancels the form submission, and I didn't want to have to use another function in my .js include file. In the target window of the submitted form: <body onload="window.focus(); window.opener.document.forms['frmStats'].btnSubmit.disabled = false; "> This does the trick. If the window has not been opened yet, it pops up in front. If it's hiding in the background, the button is disabled until it loads, which obscures the main window anyway. Next time they go back to the main page, the button is enabled again. Now, the only problem here is if the second page blows up, due to some error with the database or something. I'll have to put something in there to reset the button after 10 seconds or so. Shawn
