| Case sensitive would Mod rewrite help?
My old site (dating back to 1996) used to be on a windows server so it didn't matter if file names were upper or lower case.
Yes I know they should all have been lower case but on the mirror of the site on my hard drive they are all lower case so I have no idea how lots of files got indexed with a mix of upper and lower case as there does not seem to be any ryhme or reason to it.
Anyway, as the site has such longevity the search engines love it so I really do not want to lose the rankings.
Now the site is on its new home at UH but.... eeek! ........... thousands of 404 errors which is definately not good.
It seems Apache is very case sensitive where my old server was a windows server and not case sensitive.
I am a complete novice at mod rewrite stuff but I do already have my .htaccess file directing the 404 errors to my error page but, is there any way of using .htaccess to say "ignore what case the file is in, just give the people what they want"?
Any help would be really appreciated.
