Hi -- you're correct in that there is no way to reassemble a list of items on the server because of how WWW form post works today. However there is nothing inside the specification for repeat that claims we preserve order --perhaps we should make it even clearer. Incidentally I'm surprized you raised this in connection with repeat --and not selectMany --both have the same problem --only difference is that selectMany is populating a schema list --repeat is populating something with more substructure -- Best Regards, --raman ------------------------------------------------------------ IBM Research: Human Language Technologies Phone: 1 (408) 927 2608 Fax: 1 (408) 927 3012 Email: tvraman@us.ibm.com WWW: http://www.cs.cornell.edu/home/raman PGP: http://emacspeak.sf.net/raman.asc Snail: IBM Almaden Research Center, 650 Harry Road San Jose 95120
