Answer 1

Use the same approach, however in CodeIgniter your code will look a bit clearer :

<form action="TheController/PostHandler" method="POST">
    <input type="submit" name="button1" id="button1" value="Button 1" />
    <input type="submit" name="button2"  id="button2" value="Button 2" />
</form>

Because in CodeIgniter, this is :

$something = $this->input->post('something');

equivalent to :

$something = isset($_POST['something']) ? $_POST['something'] : NULL;

Simply check for null values with a code like this :

public function PostHandler(){
    if (!is_null($this->input->post('button1'))){
        // code for button 1
    }

    if (!is_null($this->input->post('button2'))){
        // code for button 2
    }
}
