Greetings, Hopefully this is something dumb I'm doing but simplejson
is reording my lists/arrays. Has anyone seen this? Know how to fix?

The scenario is I am placing tags and GLatLngs into db.ListProperties.
However I've noticed that when written into the table the list is no
longer in proper order which is a major problem for the GLatLngs....

Specifically what appears to be happening and consistent is passing
the following json string to simplejson:

"tags": {
        "0": "testtag 0",
        "1": "testtag 1",
        "2": "testtag 2",
        "3": "testtag 3",
        "4": "testtag 4"
    }

I get reordered data back such as:

"tags": {"1":"testtag 1", "0":"testtag 0","3":"testtag 3","2":"testtag
2","4":"testtag 4"}

This reordered pattern(1,0,3,2,4...) occurs for everything through
simplejson. I've checked the input/output and removed simplejson to
isolate it to simplejson doing the reordering.

Code snippet below:

if request.method == "POST":
        data = request.POST['map']
        json = simplejson.loads(data)
        my_map = Map()
        tags = json['tags']
        for tag, tagname in tags.iteritems():
                my_map.tags.append(tagname)
        my_map.save()

Any help will be greatly appreciated. I'm looking at how to reorder
data back, but ideally want to stop the json reordering.

thx,

Dave
