The NAME attribute on a FORM tag is not sent via HTTP by any browser.

W3C HTML 4.01 spec says it's only there "style sheets or scripts" but is
only there for compatibility and you should use id attribute -- which is
ALSO not sent by any browser I know of.

Perhaps the spec should read "client scripts" since clearly these are
useless for server scripts dealing with the submitted form, if you read
the form submission specification.

Assuming you can stay awake enough to read that sucker... :-)

To solve your problem, you'll need to have <INPUT TYPE="HIDDEN"
NAME="form" VALUE="form1"> on the first form and use form2 on the second
form.
