Keep in mind that applets execute inside the client browser, while the bean
referenced by <jsp:useBean> is on the server -- the applet won't be able to
talk to them directly.

If the user is filling in fields in the applet, you're going to need to either
use your browser's connection between applets and the HTML forms (LiveConnect
in Netscape, for example), or you are going to have to do the form "submit"
itself in the applet, rather than an HTML form. If you want to do the latter,
the applet can use java.net.URLConnection to do the submit.
