No, it's wrong. It may not submit the form, because submit button will
be disabled before submission takes place.
And even in case it does submit, it becomes incredibly annoying when
submission fails for some reason (e.g. temporary loss of network
coverage) ? user won't be allowed to retry submission.
This is much better IMHO:
onclick="var t=this; setTimeout(function(){t.disabled=true},1);
setTimeout(function(){t.disabled=false},5000)"
