first set id in your button. lets say id 1 and id 2 In this case route call in your button should be like..

<a href="[your route]" id=1 class="btn green">

And in your routs it should be like

Route::get('[your link to be displayed]{id?}', 'Controller@action')

In th function call it should be like

 public function action($id = null) {

   if($id=1) {
       return redirect()->route('data.create');
 } 
   elseif($id=2) {
    return redirect()->route('data.index');
}

}

Hope this would be usefull

You should look for the value of the submit_1 button.

if(Input::get('submit_1') == "submit_1") {
    return redirect()->route('data.create');
} else if(Input::get('submit_1') == "submit_2") {
    return redirect()->route('data.index');
}

However giving same name to 2 different buttons is not a good approach.

You need to compare the input with a value.

At the minute your basically just saying if('submit_1') (or 'submit_2') either will evaluate to being true, you're not actually checking the the value for submit_1 is actually 'submit_1'.

(I think the confusion comes from having the value of one of your buttons being the same as the name of your buttons )

Change your if condition to be:

if(Input::get('submit_1') == 'submit_1')

Hope this helps!
