How can I get a button's value when submitted in a form?

I have a form with multiple buttons and also have a separate submit button.

When I click a button how can I disable this button and make the other button enabled? Like on/off conditions.

Also how can I get the value of the disabled button in the submitted form so I can store it in my database?

Here's an example that might help you: http://jsfiddle.net/XHBZf/417/

When a button is clicked the styles change on all the buttons to show that one is depressed and the others are still active.

The value of that button then goes into the text field which will be submitted along with the form.

When you come to implement you can set the input as type="hidden" and it will not show up in the form.

You should use .prop

$('#button1').click(function () {
        $('#button1').prop('disabled', true);
        $('#button2' ).prop( "disabled", false );
    });
});

Now you have to have your buttons with the id='button1' and id='button2'
