Thank you all.
I changed the type to button and added the onClick="return(myFunction())".
I did some tests this morning and the double posts seem to stop.
The duplicate entries were a thousandth to a ten thousandth off in the
time stamp, but now there's only the one entry as should be.
Thank you again.
