php - Laravel One Form Two Submit Buttons -

i have form view;

<form class="form-horizontal" role="form" method="get" action="">  @foreach($input $key => $value)     @foreach($value $subkey => $subvalue)                                     {!! form::hidden($key.'_'.$subkey, $subvalue) !!}     @endforeach @endforeach  {!! form::hidden('postcode_id', $postcode_lookup['id']) !!}  <input class="btn btn-info"    type="submit" name="action" value="map view"     /> <input class="btn btn-warning" type="submit" name="action" value="csv download" />  </form> 

i have routes.php code;

if ( input::get('action') === 'csv download' ) {   route::get('/export/csv', 'excelcontroller@index'); }  if ( input::get('action') === 'map view' ) {   route::get('/map/all', 'mapcontroller@index'); } 

if user clicks 1 button, want them excelcontroller called. if it's other, want mapcontroller called... 2 different controllers!

what should action route be? @ moment stays on current page when click either.

the action route empty, directs current page. should route. example

<.. action="{{ url::to('split_form') }}" ..> 

you attach filter route (in routes.php):

route::get('split_form', array('before' => 'form_splitter')); 

and define filter (in filters.php)

route::filter('form_splitter', function() {     if ( input::get('action') === 'csv download' )     {         redirect::to('/export/csv');     }     elseif ( input::get('action') === 'map view' )     {        redirect::to('/map/all');     } }); 

and define actual routes (in routes.php)

route::get('/export/csv', 'excelcontroller@index'); route::get('/map/all', 'mapcontroller@index'); 

though answer angelo in blackbischop's second link work want, saving filter/redirect using javascript
