<br />
By this I mean that you can think of Hashtables, Sets, etc as being like a bag of sweets... &nbsp;To sort them (in order of colour or size), you will have to put them in a struture that can hold order (like a queue, or list) :-)<br />

Hope that makes more sense :-)<br />

Sort a Hashtable

JavaServer Pages (JSP) allow the development of dynamically generated web pages. It uses the Java programming language; JSP pages are translated into servlets at runtime, with each servlet being cached and reused until the JSP is modified. JSP allows Java code to be interleaved with static web markup content, so the resulting page can be compiled and executed on the server to deliver the content.
