Hello!

I have created a form using the standard formmail code. When I enter the information into the form, and have it sent to my server, the results are in the correct order. However, when my client tests the form using their server (it is an asp form), the results are not in any sort of order. Why is this?

The forms I created are here: Orlando Weddings: Your Dream, Our Promise
The main form is a shorter version and will go to a different employees email but the same server. The longer form (destination weddings) is highly critical that we have in order as there is so much information.

You can view the client's current form here:
Orlando Weddings Online Quote Form

The main difference I notice is that they use a number in the "id" tag and I did on the shorter form but did not on the longer form. Is this number critical? I have no knowledge of asp so if someone can give me a clue as to why the form information is not in order once it is processed by the server and emailed back, I would appreciate it.

That's the way it is with forms, unless you process it and order it the way you want at the backend it will be picked up and sent in the order the form dictates when submitted.

If you just use a for each x in request construct for collecting the form data then it will be in submit order, it's your job as programmer to order the data as required.

Always format the order to ensure symmetry all over.

I tried to fill it out to see what would happen, but nothing showed back up in the format (note: the Bridezilla one is a fake one created by me. I don't think anyone would want to get married quite like that.)

Just so you know, you may want to put in some form validation (particularly on estimated number of guests, where you'd probably want a number.)

Anyway, chrishirst is right. You can assemble the body of the email and the order of the fields in any manner you wish. All you'd need to do is assign each form input to a variable and rearrange the variables in the right order.

As far as "standard form mailer" is concerned, there really isn't any such animal in ASP. There's code to send email, and there's code to gather form data and assign it to variables, but there really isn't code to do both since people's needs vary so much that way.

One other thing you'll want to look at...that's a loooooooooonnnnnnnnnng form. You really should split it up into 2-3 parts and maybe write to database as you go along. That's too much info for people to want to fill out.
