Mapbuilder + Mapserver without WMS?

    Greetings,

    I have been sniffing around the web lately trying to find a good 
ajax client to enhance our in-house developed client in our mapping 
application (Google maps spoiled a lot people). Anyway, I found 
Mapbuilder and thought it would fit the bill because it works on Tomcat 
and has allows all the visual customization we need.
    However, I cant find in the docs any mention to it running alongside 
Mapserver with a non-WMS setup. I dont think we could refactor our java 
mapscript code to make it
work reliably trough a WMS connection. Not to mention no one over here 
ever worked with WMS before, so add in the cost/time of training someone.

    So, has anyone ever successfully used Mapbuilder sending parameters 
to mapserver trough a good old fashion POST and fetching the resulting 
map directly at the file system, or is that line a research a dead-end 
and I should start thinking about migrating to a local WMS?

    Thanks!

    Rodrigo
