I have made a script for request forms that just takes anything passed to it and send it via CDONTS. The problem I have encountered is that the order the items are displayed in are really weird. I was wondering if anyone knows how to order this.

Dim varRequestVariables, varRequestVariablesKeys
Set varRequestVariables = CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary")
For each InputField in Request.Form
    For each InputValue in Request.Form(InputField)
      If varRequestVariables.Exists(InputField) Then
        varRequestVariables(InputField) = varRequestVariables(InputField) & "," & Trim(InputValue)
      Else
        varRequestVariables.Add InputField, Trim(InputValue)
      End If
    Next
Next

For each InputField in Request.Form
    For each InputValue in Request.Form(InputField)
If (InputField <> "x") and (InputField <> "y") then
    varNewMailContent = varNewMailContent & InputField & ": " & InputValue & vbCrLf
   End If
    Next
Next

http://www.pd9soft.com/aspFormMail/index.asp - http://www.pd9soft.com/aspFormMail/index.asp (all right, so I am slightly biased towards that ).

Basically, for the alphabetic sort, we used the Split() function to split the Request.Form data up, got the left hand side (i.e. field names), performed a alphabetical sort (plenty of scripts for these out there) on them and shoved them and their values into the body of the email.
