I was playing around with multiple submit buttons and found
that AMosaic returns a value of 'submit' regardless.

I thought that what is in the 'value' field is supposed to
be sent as the value for the form and not a general submit.

So is this a bug of AMosaic or do I just not understand the
the specs below?


I checked this out in the specs and found at:
<http://www.w3.org/hypertext/WWW/MarkUp/html-spec/html-spec_8.html#SEC82>

:An INPUT element with `TYPE=SUBMIT' represents an input option, typically
:a button, that instructs the user agent to submit the form. Optional 
:attributes are:
:
:NAME 
:    indicates that this element contributes a form field whose value is
:    given by the VALUE attribute. If the NAME attribute is not present,
:    this element does not contribute a form field. 
:VALUE 
:    indicates a label for the input (button). 
:
:You may submit this request internally:
:<input type=submit name=recipient value=internal><br>
:or to the external world:
:<input type=submit name=recipient value=world>
