ActionForms and custom tags

Is it possible to use ActionForms without the tags?

E.g. I want to have a jsp page that does not use struts form tags and
submits to an Action. If I specify the ActionForm for the Action's mapping,
will the form get automatically populated like it does when I have a jsp
with custom tags that correspond to the form's fields?

Thanks in advance for any advice,

Mike

Struts tags don't do anything that you can't do "manually" with HTML and JSP
'stuff', it justs gives you a framework to work in that eliminates some of
the drudgery of typing (and correcting) the 'stuff'.

If you can do with a tag you can do it without a tag!  (It just might take
longer.)
