If you change the name= in your example to all be the same like I did below
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Process Order">
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Calculate">
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Compare">
and then use
<cfswitch expression="#submit#">
<cfcase value="Process Order">your procedure</cfcase>
<cfcase value="Calculate">your procedure</cfcase>
<cfcase value="Compare">your procedure</cfcase>
</cfswitch>
in the template you are submitting to.
