Explanation / Answer

Try This, It should work, Make sure you increase the Size

public void add(E e) {

       Node current;

   final Node new_node = new Node(e);

   if (head.element == null || head.element.compareTo(new_node.element)>=0)

   {

       if(head.element == null)

           head = null;

new_node.next = head;

head = new_node;

   }

   else {

current = head;

while (current.next != null &&

   current.next.element.compareTo(new_node.element) < 0)

current = current.next;

new_node.next = current.next;

current.next = new_node;

   }
++size;

}


The problem in your code is E is an object and u cannot use >, >= , <= . You have to use CompareTo and make sure AbstractList extends Comparable
