+If you haven't realised yet, if two or more calls are sent to the javascript function sendForm in a short time, the fading effect of the current sendForm Callback method might get stuck / froze / bugged. 
+We need a way of avoiding this by desactivating the connection between the submit button and the sendForm method while the fading '''animation''' is active.
+Thanks Dojo there is such things ! in two lines of code its done.
+
+
+{{{
+function sendFormCallback(type, data, evt)
+    {
+       [...as before ...]
+        // and the fancy fading effect
+        
+        // first disconnect the listener !
+        dojo.event.disconnect(sendFormButton, 'onclick', 'sendForm');
+        // assign our fading effect to an anim variable.
+        var anim = dojo.lfx.html.highlight("mark_status", [255, 151, 58], 700).play(300);
+        // When this anim is finish, reconnect
+        dojo.event.connect(anim, "onEnd", function() {  dojo.event.connect(sendFormButton, 'onclick', 'sendForm'); });
+    }
+}}}
+
+how nice is this !
+Careful, while talking about how to fix the problem using onEnd in Dojo IRC chanel, they realised play() method didnt behave properly and updated it to react to onEnd and such.
+su you need at least revision '''4286'''.
+Update your dojo source
