which button was pushed

[MikePalm]

I have a web page with several buttons. i would like to know in a javascript routine which button was pushed.

Clients use IE

Thanks,

Mike

In ie, you can use event.srcElement to get to the element object where the event is triggered. With ff/nn, the equivalent is the event.target object.

The answer would depend on what the buttons do. If they submit a form, you could detect this server-side. If they just call stuff on the page, then detection is dead easy (the onclick could set a flag, for one).

Provide some more detail, and a more accurate answer might be forthcoming.

Hope this helps,
Dan
