Ok, I tried your suggested code and it's not working for me. The
initial click comes back to the server and causes the entire page to be
redrawn as expected. This of course means that the custom event
handlers setup by the javascript are now gone.
Here is my code in case im am doing something wrong....

setTimeout("enableButton('"+ button.id + "');", resetDelay);
}
function noClick()
{
alert("Chill - You already submitted this page once. Submitting
it twice isn't going to make the server go faster. Quit hitting the
freakin' button!");
return false;
}
function enableButton(buttonId)
{
var button = document.getElementById(buttonId);
if(button!=null)
{
button.onclick = button.oldonclick;
}
}
