pass NEW / OLD variable in trigger to table

Hello,

I'm using some trigger functions on a view. Can I pass the NEW / OLD variable to the table of the view?
An excerpt of my view shows:

 IF TG_OP = 'INSERT' then
        insert into mytable (name, data, commentdata, history) values (NEW.name, NEW.data, NEW.commentdata, NEW.history);
ernd if;

Can I do anything like "insert into mytable values (NEW)" ? Can I do this with update and delete also?
I would like to pass the variable with the "action" to the table, so I need not to reference the fields

Thanks

Phil
