Click counting, limiting, and disabling

Is it possible to use JQuery & PHP to create a "like" button that a user could click and it would add +1 to a "number of likes" database (or even text file) and disable the "like" button for that user so that the user could only click it once? I was browsing around and found some information about writing cookies with JQuery:http://jquery-howto.blogspot.com/2010/09/jquery-cookies-getsetdelete-plugin.htmlPerhaps, when a like button is clicked, it could write a cookie to the user's computer that would prevent them from future clicks? It just basically needs to be that the user could click the like button, it adds a count to some type of database, and it disables the button for the user. Pretty simple I would imagine - there may already be some type of plugin for this, but I haven't found any. Any ideas?Thanks!
