jQuery: Single button click, click event firing two or more times

Your problem may be happening because you are assigning the same handler to the click event multiple times. I suggest you check that the line where you assign the handler is not being called multiple times inadvertently. Another solution could be a call to unbind (deprecated 3.0) or off (superseeded) first:

$("#myButton").unbind("click").click(myHandler); // deprecated
$("#myButton").off("click").click(myHandler); // superseeded

But without seeing some code I’m just guessing.
