Jquery dont allow button to be pressed

If i have a button pressed method like this:

$('#next').click(function () {
});

How can i stop this method being initiated whilst its running. Say the method takes 5 seconds to run and someone clicks it 3 seconds in it breaks so i want to make the div thats being clicked unclickable while the methods running.

You can use "disabled" to disable the button while your execution, as like byron said
