ASP FAQ Tutorials :: Classic ASP 1.0 :: Forms :: When I have multiple submit buttons, how do I tell which was clicked?


When I have multiple submit buttons, how do I tell which was clicked?

You can use a hidden input type, coupled with a client-side handler that intercepts the submit. 
 
<form method=post onsubmit="return false;" 
    name=form1> 
 
<input type=text name=bob> 
 
<input type=hidden name=buttonChoice> 
 
<input type=button value="Choice 1" 
    onclick='setButton("Choice1");' 
    style='cursor:pointer'> 
 
<input type=button value="Choice 2" 
    onclick='setButton("Choice2");' 
    style='cursor:pointer'> 
 
</form> 
 
<script> 
function setButton(s) 

    document.form1.buttonChoice.value = s; 
    document.form1.submit(); 

</script> 
 
<% 
    for each x in request.form 
        response.write "<p>" & x & " = " 
        response.write request.form(x) 
    next 
%>
