Bummer.  Having both tapestry and non-tapestry styling is probably not a
realistic option.

quote author="netdawg">
Tapestry's Form component does a lot of work while an HTML form is rendering
to store all the information needed to handle the form submission in a later
request; this is all very specific to Tapestry and the particular
construction of your pages and forms; it can't be reproduced from a JSP.


Well if it cannot be reproduced from JSP, plain HTML would be same thing.  

This is a serious problem.  So either use your own form and roll your own
validation etc - or use tapestry form with limited (default ) styles, or
painful reconstruction in your styles to capture everything generated by
tapestry (which itself can change).  Am I understanding correctly?   Ugh. 
This is why PHP ended up ruling the planet.  

I think what is probably needed is some sort of wizard to generate form a la
appnitro.com or use some sort of decorator approach like Sitemesh does to
augment plain HTML forms.   Not sure....any help/pointers would be
appreciated.
