Two SUBMIT buttons, how to distinguish the processing

There are two SUBMIT buttons in a FORM form (such as "Modify" and "Delete") and only one ACTION processing page
How to distinguish whether to deal with "modification" or "delete" in this ACTION page?

Method 1:
If the FORM form looks like this:

<INPUT Type="Submit" Name="Action" value="Modify">
<INPUT Type="Submit" Name="Action" value="Delete">


You can read the value of Request("Action") in ASP. If the user selects "Modify", then this variable is "Modify".

Method 2:
You can make a script function, such as:

<Script Language="javascript"> 
function modify() 

document.=""; 
document.(); 


function delete() 

document.=""; 
document.(); 

</Script> 

<form name="form1" action=""> 
<INPUT Type="Button" Name="Modify" value="Modify " onClick="modify()">
<INPUT Type="Button" Name="Delete" value="Delete " onClick="delete()">
</form> 


This allows multiple buttons to be sent to different web pages.
