It sounds like a system I have used. Say, a number of forms, buttons
whatever, you need to know what the i.... at the other end did.
First some JS:
function setbuttonname(input)
{
document.forms[0].buttonname.value=input;
document.forms[1].buttonname.value=input;
....
}
then the button
<form...
<input type="hidden" name="buttonname" value="none" />
<input name="btn_ohyes" type="submit"
onclick="setbuttonname(this.name);"...
Idea: I get the name of button pressed - this tells me very exact what
the user did.
