On the server side, you'd do it by assigning a name/value pair.

In Javascript the first thing I'd try is making sure the event object  
is passed to onsubmit (either with bindAsEventListener or  
Event.observe).  Then test the properties of the event object to see  
if there is something useful there.  Perhaps Event.element() might  
hold a useful value.

e.g.
myForm.onsubmit = function (evt) {
   // ...
   // alert(Event.element(evt));
   // for (prop in evt) {console.log(prop +': ' +evt[prop];}
   // ...
}.bindAsEventListener(myForm);


If all else fails, you can tie an onclick event to one of the buttons  
to differentiate behaviors.
