Case sensitivity

[naashar]

I feel silly posting this basic question but I don't know where to post this.
Most websites handle case-sensitivity when the user
manually types in the URL. But that?s not always the situation. Try to open
these links.

In contrast something like the following will take you to the same site.
[url]www.adobe.com[/url]
[url]www.ADOBE.COM[/url]
[url]www.aDoBe.com[/url]

Even mispellings can sometimes lead you to the same site.
But I'll keep the topic on case-sensitivity.

Does anyone know how most sites handle case-sensitivity.
I know you can create redirects using javascript but I'm sure there is
another way, I'm sure.

Thanks Much

you are comparing a domain name to a foldername

just try this:
[url]http://www.ed2go.com/pgcc/[/url]
[url]http://www.ED2go.com/pgcc/[/url]
[url]http://www.ED2GO.com/pgcc/[/url]
[url]http://www.ed2GO.com/pgcc/[/url]

all the links will result in the same page
on nearly every non-windows server the files and directories are case
sensitive, i know there are a few ways to fix this but i can't find a descent
link right now

but if you want this fixed you should look at your host, or create a 404
script that will automatically redirect to the page with everything lowercase
