I have a asp.net app that I want to disable the buttons as soon as they are clicked in order to prevent multiple submissions. I'd like to use jquery for this as the site already liberally uses it anyway.

What I've tried is:

$(document).ready(function () {
    $("#aspnetForm").submit(function () {
        $('input[type=submit]', $(this)).attr("disabled", "disabled");
    })
});

The above will disable the button, and the page submits, but the asp.net button on click handler is never called. Simply removing the above and the buttons work as normal.

Is there a better way?
