Ok i am just beginning in php/html/...., so please be descriptive in your replies. I was trying to create a simple one page form where there will be 3 to 4 buttons (along with other fields), and clicking on any one of those buttons would submit the form. Then i want to return exactly which button was pressed and show it in a message. i cant figure out how to do this part. if the button types were all "submit" then clicking any one of them will submit the form, but then how do i check which one was pressed exactly?if i am on the wrong path, then please show me the right way!

	echo "You clicked button 1";	
	}
if ($_POST['button2'])

	echo "You clicked button 2";	
	} 
if ($_POST['button3'])
	{
	echo "You clicked button 3";	
	}
