Thanks Maarten. I'm not positive that URLs are case-insensitive. I
think my example was poor-- the domain name IS insensitive to case,
but other files are not. For example:

http://www.christianboyce.com/MAARTEN.png and
http://www.christianboyce.com/maarten.png

do not load the same picture. UNIX lets me put two files with the
"same" names into the same directory as long as their capitalization
is not the same as UNIX is sensitive to case.

You may be right anyway. But, I'm still trying to pass over those URLs
without touching them.

This problem boils down to one of those "I can find the stuff that I
DON'T want to change (URLs)-- how do I say 'change everything that
isn't that stuff'" questions. It is easier to find what I don't want
to change than what I do.

Meanwhile I will see about finding out more regarding why the
requirement is "don't change the URLs."
