I completely agree with you. changing submit text is as easy as changing hidden fields, but its less likely for a user to modify a submit button as compared to a hidden field. moreover it just reduces my typing load. (This is just my practice) >> Also worth noting, you can only successfully check for the name="submit" >> value if there is only one submit button in your form, as that is then >> the default (and only) submit that the form can use, so it uses that.

Cant agree with you on this though. as far as i know using name="" (names of the two buttons may/may not be unique) is the only way to track form submission for forms with multiple submit buttons. Please point out if you think otherwise -- Kranthi.
