double submit / how many requests and threads?

[Tapio Niemela]

Hi,

after some googling I could not find satisfactory answer..

What happens when user double submits (double clicks "Submit" or similar) form to servlet? Will/could it create 2 httprequests and 2 threads? Or one httprequest and 2 threads? Or something else?

Please help

It's not that complicated. Each time the user clicks on that "Submit" button the browser creates an HTTP request. That's all there is to it.

Thanks Paul, so I assume two threads are also created; one for each request

Of course. The server always uses a separate thread for each request.
