The objects DO come into perl in the correct order.  It is perl that is
messing them up. You have 2 options:
1. Write your own parser and stay off CGI module. You can get a good example
from Matts script archive.. "formmail.pl"
2. Add a hidden field in the form.. with the field-order you want kept
straight.

Sorry, but you have no control on the sequence that these web form objects
are returned.

CGI.pm and cgi-lib.pl both place the returned data in a hash, so just look
for data in these named keys.
