The HowtoWizardAction has an identical role as a Struts action.
It makes the decision, which is the following *logical* page to go to.
Notice that the *sitemap* converts the logical name to a *URL*!

Actions are appropriate for evaluating the current form content,
applying business rules and making decision what is the next logical 
page to go to. Actions *do not* deal with absolute *URL*s and they 
*only* aware and interested in pages which immediately follow as a 
result of the Action processing.

In real world application decisions for the outcome of form submit can 
be quite complex, requiring the Action to consult with the business 
layer and possibly the database and other resources.

This should not happen. Possibly a bug.
Can you reproduce the problem from the time you open a new browser 
window and send me the steps.
