What I once did, was send the output through CGI to a Perl script
which displayed an intermediate page (a rough and dirty way is to use
"refresh"), and called the proper submit program with the supplied
parameters.
This stops people repeatedly hitting the submit button while the
server is trying to process the original request.

Luckly this is an internal industrial application.
So I have control over that.
And you are right, he doesn't even know what javascript is.
Again, thanks all.

No actually he works for me.
Small company we hold many jobs, I do Quality, Operations, and I wrote
the enterprise system (php/mysql).
He is the production manager.
That would be rude.

OK, this is a bit late, but here's a simpler solution -
<form action="someProgram.cgi">
<input type="submit" id="btnSubmit" value="Submit"
onclick="this.disabled=true;this.value='Submitting...';
this.form.submit();">
</form>
