You could also use two different forms with two different submit
buttons. Each form can have a hidden disabled text field that contains
the text, so when it is submitted with the button you can read the
form field that is attached to that form and find out if it is an ON
or an OFF... or you could skip all of this and use javascript with
JSON.
Good luck.
