Hi, In every servlet specification you know that you SHOULD NOT trust in the order that the elements were sentfrom form, but you can try with Request.getParameterValue(int param) with the integer instead the name of the parameter, get first the parameters count and after a cycle: for (int=0;i<count;i++) and hope for the best, if it doesn't work, don't try another way, it is a warning for every web server it depends on the web client (IE or NetScape), the web client is the one that impose the order of the parameter, it is not a bug, try it and pray for the best.

I am interested in receiving the parameters in order. I want to make a generic servlet that emails forms to me and maintains the order of the fields on the form. Nothing is "dependent", but aesthetically it works out better if I just use the order from the form. It seems a shame that the servlet API discards the data. (At least that is what I gathered from the previous thread.)
