# Single Click Button



## 

The single click button (**Figure 1**) is used to avoid multiple postbacks/callbacks to the server. This feature is useful in database and/or e-mail send scenarios when the developer should prevent submitting of identical content multiple times to the server.

>note The single click functionality is available only for buttons that make postbacks. For example the functionality is not available for the LinkButton because it acts as an anchor element.

>When the single click functionality is enabled, the button is rendered as `<button type="button">` instead of a `<button type="submit">` and that takes precedence over the `UseSubmitBehavior` property.
