Question about caseSensitive - how does it work?
With the trouble I've been having with getting caseSensitive="false" to
work in my app, I got to wondering if it really does what I think it
does on Windows XP.
My interpretation of the doc description is that when
caseSensitive=:"false", I should be able to have a document root and
context path at (for example) "/SiteData", and be able to reach it with
urls including "sitedata", "SITEDATA", "SiteData", or any other
combination of upper- and lower-case letters which spell the correct
word. Is this interpretation correct?
If so, then I can go back to figuring out how to actually make it work.
TIA!
Dave

I have read it several times, each time more carefully than the last,
and googled several dozen references, and the way I read that doc and
everything else, it should work the way I describe.
But I cannot get it to work and it's driving me nuts! I'm aware of the
security implications, but at the moment I don't give a rat's a** about
them; I just want my context path to be non-case sensitive.

I strongly suggest you read the documentation for this attribute
before you go any further.
