    If you use jquery you can write the second button like this

    <button type="button" id="SecondButton" data-href="index.php">Permalink</button>

    and then add some javascript:

    <script type="text/javascript">
    $('#SecondButton').click(function(e) {
        e.preventDefault(); e.stopPropagation();
        window.location.href = $(e.currentTarget).data().href;
    });
</script>

    Edit (Further completed scenarios)

    <button type="button" id="SecondButton" data-href="index.php" onclick="location='permalink.php'" href="index.php">Permalink</button>

    I would insert both additional href tag and onclick inside it too; you could then test for different scenarios; devices that do not support javascript or jquery fails to load on CDN like mobile etc:

    <button type="button" id="SecondButton" data-href="index.php?trackAnalytics=1" onclick="location='permalink.php?trackAnalytics=2'" href="index.php?trackAnalytics=3">Permalink</button>
