html will look something like this (calling two different JavaScript functions on two buttons) -

<form name="MyForm"> 
.....
.....
<input type="button" value="Save" onclick="return saveData()">
<input type="button" value="Close" onclick="return closePage()">
.....
.....
</form>

Then in the JavaScript function, set the action attribute of form as -

function saveData() {
  // logic for validating form data etc.
  // if all successful
  {
    MyForm.action = "save.php";
    MyForm.method = "POST";
    MyForm.submit();
    return true;
  }
  return false;
}

function closePage() {
  MyForm.action = "close.php";
  MyForm.method = "POST";
  MyForm.submit();
  return true;
}

Hope it helps you out...
