Handling 2 buttons submit Actions in a single View/Form - ASP.NET MVC 2 RTM

Question

I have a View in which the user is able to upload a file to the server.

In this view I also have 2 buttons: one to Upload a file and other to Download the last file

Answer 1

To generate a POST request for the upload, use the File Input form element and just post back to the server ala normal.
