A system for dynamically disabling the resubmission of HTTP requests. In one
embodiment,
the present invention is a method for selectively disabling resubmission of an
HTTP request that includes the steps of receiving input relating to a functional
group of input controls, wherein a functional group is a set of input controls
(e.g., buttons, radio boxes, hyperlinks), determining whether a member of the functional
group has been previously activated, and, if a member of the functional group has
been previously activated, selectively disabling the resubmission of the HTTP request.
In one embodiment, selectively disabling the resubmission of the HTTP request means
that when a confirmation attribute value is determined to have a first value, a
first message is displayed indicating that a related response has been previously
submitted and including a control to enable the resubmission of the HTTP request.
When the confirmation attribute has a second value, a second message is displayed
indicating that a related response has been previously submitted and including
no control to enable the resubmission of the HTTP request.
