Assuming that subaction is processed on the server, I'd presume that

<input type="submit" name="subaction" value="book">
<input type="submit" name="subaction" value="print">

Would do the job.  If subaction is processed in an onChange or onSubmit
handler, then you can just keep the same basic code and just add onClick
handlers to your two submit buttons.
