http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/interact/forms.html#h-17.13.4.1 application/x-www-form-urlencoded This is the default content type. Forms submitted with this content type must be encoded as follows: 1. Control names and values are escaped ... 2. The control names/values are listed in the order they appear in the document. ... That's just for urlencoded forms, but then again that's the only content-type the servlet spec makes any promises about. It seems reasonable that a servlet container should return the params in order for content-types where the ordering is guaranteed. -- Christopher St. John [EMAIL PROTECTED] DistribuTopia http://www.distributopia.com -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Troubles with the list: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
