2 submit buttons in a form

Question

I have a question about forms. I have a fairly standard form that saves a post (called an eReport in my app) with a title and body. The table also has a \"published\" field,

Answer 1

in addition to @iddlefingers answer, here is a view of the log of the application (striping some useless params due to explanation purposes)

Parameters: {"utf8"=>"✓", ..., "comentar"=>"Confirmar"}

where we can see that comentar is the name of the parameter, and "Confirmar" is it's value, which is the button's text too.

which was obtained by submit_tag "Confirmar", :name => 'comentar'

So in general you could have (if you want to reduce the number of params you are working with) several submit_tag "onevalue", :name => 'SAMEname', submit_tag "othervalue", :name => 'SAMEname'...

and retrieve them in your controller

if params[:SAMEname] == "onevalue"
# do stuff
elsif params[:SAMEname] == "othervalue"
#do different stuff
end
