What are the potential pitfalls of using two submit buttons in a PHP form?

Having two submit buttons in a PHP form can lead to confusion for the user and can result in unexpected behavior. To solve this issue, you can use the "name" attribute of the submit buttons to differentiate between them in the PHP code. This way, you can check which button was clicked and execute the corresponding action accordingly. 

<?php
if(isset($_POST['submit1'])){
    // Code to execute when the first submit button is clicked
}
elseif(isset($_POST['submit2'])){
    // Code to execute when the second submit button is clicked
}
?>
