I seem to recall having this debate before. I use both upper and lower case letters in my files on a unix box on purpose. I've never run into any problems because I have set up a standard of how all files are named and I stick to it. If you start off on the right foot it's fairy easy to stay in step. *grin*

It gets me in trouble sometimes, however, because I am on a Unix server. When I redo the site, I'm going to go all lowercase...
