the case-sensitivity is in the server, not the browser; if it didn't
work
with IE, it shouldn't work with navigator, opera, lynx, hotjava or
anything else. for once, it isn't the suckiness of IE that's the

it's the suckiness of Xoom's webserver! well, i suppose it's not being

it's not *my* site, it's everyone's. i just set it up. and it's not an
