The only way is to host your site on a Windows server. Windows is not case
sensitive, Unix (including BeOs, Linux etc.) is.
It can help to ensure all your pages and files have lower case names, then
there are (at least) two options:
1) use a custom 404 error page which contains a script (PHP for Unix) that
checks the filename.
If the filename contains uppercase letters then convert to lowercase and
retry. If the filename is already lowercase, then show the 404 error.
2) On Unix servers, use mod-rewrite in a .htaccess file to force lowercase.

Almost all URLs for the websites I visit are not case-sensitive. I use MS
FrontPage 2003 and visitors to my site are having trouble getting to
pages.
They are not following my instruction to be case sensitive. My
instructions
are clear and I always send them a link. It doesn't matter. They still
make
errors and get angry at us for it. How can I make my URLs become NOT CASE
SENSITIVE?
