Actually it's on OS X which is BSD Unix underneath but I have noticed that for example using a "cd" in a terminal window is not case sensitive. I guess BSD variants aren't necessarily case sensitive?

thanks for pointing that out though.

I'm guessing you're running this on Windows? Apache's behavior is dependent on
platform, on a unix platform even straight apache is case-sensitive because the
underlying filesystem it is serving from is case-sensitive.

Likewise, Webware's behavior is Python-dependent. And python is case-sensitive
on all platforms. So while the behavior might not be expected from a windows
perspective, any general case-insensitive solution is going to be very
difficult.

It has been mentioned once or twice that if you were to keep all of your actual
files in (say) lowercase, then a simple modification to Application.py before
it calls for the Servlet, to force all requests to lowercase would work *in
that case*. The obvious limitation here is that all your source files *must* be
lowercase.

Enjoy,
