in reply to post variables in same order

it only accepts the variables from your script if they are in the same order that was sent
That's a fairly bad design. No browser guarantees that. No spec guarantees that. They must have checked with "both browsers" {choke} and decided that this is the way that it always works. How sad. How stupid. How typical.

    Actually, it is not a browser interfacing with the script. How it ends up working (which I think is still lame (sad, stupid, and typical, quote/unquote)) is a transaction happens from a browser that posts to them, then their server posts to my script on my server, which then posts back to them, and waits then receives a response back. Some of it is for security, validity, etc. I still think it is lame that they check for an exact order though. Thanks everybody for the help.
