We can do this task in many ways. But one simple approach to do this is using an “attribute-based solution”.

index

index save action

To do this we can do it like the following.

Step 1

Create a class, HttpParamActionAttribute.cs, in an ASP.Net MVC application.

  1. using System;
  2. using System.Reflection;
  3. using System.Web.Mvc;
  5. namespace MultipleButtonClick
  6. {
  7. public class HttpParamActionAttribute : ActionNameSelectorAttribute
  8. {
  9. public override bool IsValidName(ControllerContext controllerContext, string actionName, MethodInfo methodInfo)
  10. {
  11. if (actionName.Equals(methodInfo.Name, StringComparison.InvariantCultureIgnoreCase))
  12. return true;
  14. var request = controllerContext.RequestContext.HttpContext.Request;
  15. return request[methodInfo.Name] != null;
  16. }
  17. }
  18. }
Step 2

Create a Home control and write some action like this:
  1. using System.Web.Mvc;
  3. namespace MultipleButtonClick.Controllers
  4. {
  5. public class HomeController : Controller
  6. {
  7. //
  8. // GET: /Home/
  10. public ActionResult Index()
  11. {
  12. ViewBag.msg = "I am from Index action.";
  13. return View();
  14. }
  16. [HttpPost]
  17. [HttpParamAction]
  18. public ActionResult Save()
  19. {
  20. ViewBag.msg = "I am from Save action.";
  21. return View();
  22. }
  24. [HttpPost]
  25. [HttpParamAction]
  26. public ActionResult Delete()
  27. {
  28. ViewBag.msg = "I am from Delete action.";
  29. return View();
  30. }
  31. }
  32. }
Step 3

Create a View, Index, and write the HTML code like this:

  1. @{
  2. ViewBag.Title = "Index";
  3. }
  5. <h2>Index</h2>
  7. @ViewBag.msg
  9. <br /> <br />
  10. @using (@Html.BeginForm())
  11. {
  13. <input type="submit" name="Save" value="Save" />
  15. <input type="submit" name="Delete" value="Delete" />
  16. }
