Submitting a form to one of two different URL's

I have two different buttons like this :

<input type="button" name="but1" id="but1" value="page1" onclick="f('WebForm1')" />
<input type="button" name="but2" id="but2" value="page2" onclick="f('WebForm2')" />

and obviously two other webforms ("WebForm1" and "WebForm2").

using JavaScript, how can I submit the information from the default webform (which I have the buttons in it) to the page that is the value of its button?

(I mean when I click the first button, it should go to WebForm1 and submit data and when I click the second button, it should go to WebForm2 and submit the data)

I've never tried this before so in JavaScript I wrote

function f(t){
var a;
a = document.getElementById['form1'];
a.submit(t);  }

but its not working.

hope this will help. t is the name of the form.

function f(t){
    // <form name="WebForm1">
    // t is the name of the form
    document.t.submit();
}

this work only if the two form are in the same page as where the button are.

In HTML5 you can use <button> with form attribute:

<button type="submit" form="form1" value="Submit">Submit</button>

with form attribute you can specify the form element the <button> element belongs to.

Then, in your form:

<form action="WebForm1" method="get" id="form1">
...
</form>

Are all these functionalities to be implemented on the same page? How I see it, you can make the two input buttons the submit buttons of the two different forms.

<form action = "WebForm1">
    <input type= submit  name="but1" id="but1" value="page1" />
</form>

<form action = "WebForm2">
    <input type= submit name="but2" id="but2" value="page2" />
</form>

Also, I'm not sure if anything like a.submit(t) even works.
