Question

I have form and the form submission can be done by either clicking on a hyper link or on a submit button. However I want my server to realize what has been used for form submission.

Current code snippet looks like this:

<a href=javascript:{} onclick="formSubmit()";>Next</a>
<input type="button" name="search" value="Get Result" onclick = "formSubmit();">

And my formSubmit() looks like this

<script type="text/javascript">
 function formSubmit()
 {
     document.getElementById('form1').submit();
     return false;
 }

Any pointers as to how to go about it.
Thanks

Pass a value (say an int or boolean) into the function. The value passed can be used to determine the source.
