Re: 1 Form, 2 Actions?

The solution is to post to the same form which then stores its data in the
$_SESSION array before passing control to the actual form identified on one
of the submit buttons. The next form, which could be one of several, simply
picks up its data from the $_SESSION array instead of the POST array. This
can be done with standard PHP code without the need for any fancy and
dubious tricks with javascript.

It's not rocket science, just lateral thinking.
