OK....last question....

I knew it didn't matter on an NT, because we all have different styles of
coding, so the functions have been coming across mixed, (and try as I might
to get everyone to conform to a standard, they still come in all different
ways)....

But we are developing our app on an NT machine, and then transferring over
to the Unix box, so you can see why I'm concerned (yes, I'd love to develop
the whole thing on a Unix to begin with, but the customer has not finished
setting up the web server)

.....so I remember reading somewhere (can't find it now) about
Application.cfm and how it must be "A"pplication.cfm for the ColdFusion
server to recognize it as such...... I realize calls to files, including
images are case sensitive, but in this case, the server calls the
Application.cfm  ... must we worry about this?

Erika,

Cold Fusion is case insensitive. DateFormat and dateformat are the same
thing to it. The problem with unix based machines is when you access a file.
For example, Home.cfm and home.cfm are viewed differently. So if your file
structure has a Home.cfm and your code points to home.cfm, boom you get an
error. Hope this helps...

George
