Enumeration issue

[chicago1985]

I have a JSP Form with 15 inputs that is processed and emailed to people.

I am using Enumeration to process and display the information. But I need exact order of how the information is displayed and Enumerations do not guarantee order so I have to do this:

Enumeration params = request.getParameterNames();
String text = "Form Information\n\n";
while (params.hasMoreElements()) {
//String name = (String)params.nextElement();
//String[] values = (String[])request.getParameter(name);
//String value = request.getParameter(name);
text += "First Name: " + request.getParameter("firstName");
text += "Last Name: " + request.getParameter("lastName");
text += "City: " + request.getParameter("city");
text += "County: " + request.getParameter("county");
text += "Project Info: " + request.getParameter("projInfo");
text += "Main Status: " + request.getParameter("mainStatus");
.....
.....
/*
if (values != null && values.length > 0) {
for (int i=0; i<values.length; i++) {
text += values + " ";
}
}
*/
}
 
//email the info
..........
EmailSender emailSender = new EmailSender();
emailSender.setFromEmail("info@company.com");
emailSender.setSubject(emailSubject);
emailSender.setText(text);
.........

Any better way to list the information?
Please advise because I dont have Struts and probably wont be allowed to get it for a long time.

You should've created a simple class for that first name, last name, city etc.
Don't stick them in as attributes which have nothing to do with each other.

Thanks,

You mean JavaBean class with getter and setter methods???

Yup, those beanies alright. Your JSP pages like them and it takes off the burden
of remembering 'an order' of certain properties.

Thanks for your quick responses.

I will try it with JSP and JavaBeans as you suggested.
