Set the action to page3.php which has only the following:
<?php
if(isset($_POST['submit1']))
    include('page1.php');
else if(isset($_POST['submit2']))
    include('page2.php');
?>

And in the form you naturally have

<input type="submit" name="submit1" value="1">
<input type="submit" name="submit2" value="2">
