Two submit buttons in one form

Question

I have two submit buttons in a form. How do I determine which one was hit serverside?

Answer 1

Define name as array.

    (...) some input fields (...)
    
    

Example server code (PHP):

if (isset($_POST["submit"])) {
    $sub = $_POST["submit"];

    if (isset($sub["save"])) {
        // save something;
    } elseif (isset($sub["delete"])) {
        // delete something
    }
}

elseif very important, because both will be parsed if not. Enjoy.
