 * What is the best way to deal with case sensitivity in WordPress? I host websites
   for clients and I have one client who is concerned that when their website viewers
   type in their website in all lower case it goes directly to the site, but if 
   typed in all caps there is an error.
    example: casesensitive.com (works fine),
   CASESENSITIVE.COM (404 error)
 * I tried to upload a mod rewrite in the .htaccess panel in hostgator, and shut
   the whole site down! Hah! Then I found that it was not working for wordpress 
   anyways, should have done my homework on that one. Does anyone have any ideas
   or still fighting with this?
    Thanks for any help!
