This approach checks whether the same content was posted less than 5
seconds ago. The user could still "spam" the submit button for longer
than 5 seconds to get a double post, and again after another 5 seconds
etc...

Title:
  Prevent duplicate forum posts when double-clicking

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Some people seem to submit their posts twice when they post something
  to the forums. My guess is that they accidentally double-click the
  submit button.

  We should be able to detect this and prevent the double posts either
  server-side (ideally) or at the very least in Javascript directly in
  the browser.
