Both forms don't call the same *instance* of the action class. Neither does one form, actually. For each request, Struts 2 uses a different instance of the same class. Once the result is rendered, the action object is no longer used. If you want to retain action state information, you must store it somehow-through hidden fields in form or in session, for example.
