Ensure correct sequence of printing of request parameters ?

I used an enumeration to store request parameters sent to a servlet by a html form. These are not printed in the order in which they appeared in the html form. How to get the correct order ?

Put them into the enumeration in the correct order.

And "correct" is your word for it. Don't expect anything in the servlet container to know what you mean by that. That means that you'll have to write code which does things correctly.

There is no guarantee that the parameters will be sent to the server in any specific order. If your application depends upon this, prepare for endless problems as the order can be anything.
