title: One HTML form two submit buttons - is this a limitation of jquery?
body: <p>As far as I know the following is not possible, and if not it's a clear limitation of jquery.</p>
  
  <p>I want to have an html form with two submit buttons. It is not possible to submit the form and detect which button was used to submit.</p>
  
  <p>One approach is to use click(function() but by doing so you forfeit access to any fields of the form and you cannot reference the form. In fact this approach is using a link that appears to be a form but is not!</p>
  
  <p>It seems to me such a basic need, how can this not be supported. Forms often have two submit options... for example "Submit" and "Edit". Either options requires a different action upon submission and user submitted form data? How can this not be possible?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
