You can set various values of your submit buttons, so you will know which one was submitted. Like this:

<input type="submit" name="submit_btn" value="First submit" />
<input type="submit" name="submit_btn" value="Second submit" />

After that, check on the server-side when submit_btn equals "First submit" or "Second submit":

if params["submit_btn"] == "First submit"
    #Actions
else
    #Other actions
end
