I have often added form properties to represent flags for the different
button actions to process. My ActionForm would have two properties
"update" and "new":
setUpdate(boolean flag){}
boolean isUpdate()
For the submit buttons:
<html:submit property="update" value="true" />
If I have to use an image for the submit button I generally will have a
hidden flag form field that I populate in the JavaScript onclick event
handler.
