We need a way for Jrun to provide us with a hashtable of query parameters
that will enumerate in the order they appeared in the form. Currently,
although the HTTP specification asks that parameters are viewed in the
order that they are sent, the Java servlet specification does not. The
result is that in most servlet implementations (including Jrun), the
parameters are enumerated in alphabetical order and NOT the order in which
they appeared in the form.
For example, if you had a form with the following HTML:
<FORM>
<INPUT NAME="name">
<INPUT NAME="password">
</FORM>
We would like the parameters to be received in the order "name", "password".
However, when you enumerate through the servlet using the following code:
public void service(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse
response) throws ServletException {
Enumeration e = request.getParameterNames();
String name;
while(e.hasMoreElements()) {
name = (String)e.nextElement();
System.out.println(name);
}
The parameters will come out in the order "password", "name".
We would love to be able to modify our code to handle this, but
unfortunately, due to customer requests, we need to know in what order the
elements are in the form.
With Tomcat and Jserv, we were able to modify a file to manipulate in what
order the query parameters were enumerated. We do not know how we can do
this with Jrun. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
