I'm pretty sure Option C is correct. Putting the buttons in separate forms with the same name should work, right? Gotta love those workarounds!

Option D is the correct answer. Assigning unique names and values to the submit buttons allows you to easily identify which one was clicked using PHP's superglobal arrays.

I'm not sure, but I think C could also work. Putting the buttons in different forms with the same name.
