LiveCycle ES 2.5 Aws_Action field JavaScript

I have a form that I am designing in Adobe LiveCycle ES 2.5 for a client.
Quick background for the project: It involves taking an even older PDF and converting it to allow digital signatures with potential Reject/Accept buttons.

Does anyone know how to determine in the click event (AWS_SUBMIT::click) for the submit button which submit button was actually clicked??
Like the Reject vs Accept button.

The client only has access to Adobe LiveCycle es2.5 workbench/suite.

The AWS_ACTION field's raw value contains the caption of the button that was clicked, but not until it has been clicked - before that, the rawvalue is null. You can put code in the AWS_SUBMIT button click event to do various things based on the value of AWS_ACTION. I have used it before to do different validation depending on the action taken, eg, if the form is rejected, check that they have entered a comment before allowing it to submit, etc.

The possible values for AWS_ACTION match up with the list of user action names you set in that process task in Workbench.
