Most people will tell you this is a bad idea, as you are then relying on the end user to both have Javascript available _and_ have it switched on (and that they are not sitting behind a corporate firewall that strips out Javascript which some do apparently) Why not just use another submit button? If you don't like the look of a regular submit, then use an <input type="image"/> button instead, as these act like submit buttons for the most part. You can have as many submit buttons on a form that you like, and if you give them unique names, you will know which one has been clicked.
