Your servers don't read filenames with Capitals and spaces?  Gimme a break!  I have to copy some pages with like 20 or 30 graphics, each with a Capital letter.  I have to go in and change every one in the code?  Cant do it.  
Are you guys up to giving me a fix for that?

the server is case sensitive. that means if something is "File.html", it needs to be accessed as "File.html", not "file.html" or anything else.

Linux pays attention to case.  As a rule of thumb, you may just want to keep everything lower case.  It works for me. Smile

Even a simple text editor like cuteHTML has the option to open up all your files and search and replace every instance of a phrase with whatever you specify.

It really can't take that long to run through all your documents and rename all the graphics links in that manner.

Or even easier, just rename your graphics files Wink

Like TWebMan, I tend to stick with lower_case_file_names.
