Yes you can... it will certainly be more work on your part, but yes.  In
the end, the "calls" made to Struts Actions are just HTTP GETs or POSTs. =

You can fire these yourself from an applet.  You can construct a query
string and append it to the URL when doing GETs, or you can populate an
HTTP request if doing a POST.

What you get back may be different than usual though... you could of
course render HTML in an applet, but if your using an applet in the =
first
place my guess is you are interested in getting back data, not a =
rendered
UI.  So, maybe your JSPs that your Actions forward to render XML, set =
the
content-type appropriately, and your applet parses it and does something
with it.  Maybe the response is just a flag that tells your applet to
display a nother screen.  And so on.

The basic question though is yes... simply make an HTTP request to the
appropriate URL in the Struts-based application, and handle the response
as appropriate.  No problem :)
