URL case

I've noticed in WAMP 2.0i with Apache 2.2.1 that entering a webpage into the broswer named localhost/example/ExAmple.pHp brings me to the same page as localhost/example/example.php. This does not happen on my Linux web hosting service, and although I've toyed with the my web host .htaccess file I've never been able to make this happen.

Does anyone know the Apache setting allowing case tolerant URLs or is this a Windows thing?

Thank you
Arn

Hi,

It depends of the system Apache is based on...
Windows is not case-sensitive whereas Linux is.
You should not accept uppercase uri at all, but you can have a way to do that here : [www.chrisabernethy.com]
Else, as I use an index.php file to make my includes, I'm always unsensitive.. It could be any idea.

Appreciate the link.

If I can find, then get access to httpd conf on my web host I should be able to do it. I'll give them a call tomorrow.
