We are building a simple form mailer script and would like to email the form fields in the same order as they appear on the page.
One solution I thought of would be to specify a list of the form fields in the specific order. However, that leads to duplication of code and then what happens when I "forget" to add a field to the "sort order" list? I, personally, don't like relying on this action, either. I have full control over how this will work, but I'm trying to build a solution that is flexible enough that the web designer can work with. I'm alright with trying it, but once the browser/CF fail to send fields in the desired order, I can figure out a different way. The web designer "used to do it" this way and I want to be flexible and try it, but I can also forsee what happens when you rely on things that are not part of a standard.

That's something out of your control and it's always dangerous to 'count on' something out of control. Besides, as far as I know, no one here can tell the future. ;-) Why would they need to be in a certain order anyway? What are you trying to do? Maybe there's another solution to your issue.
