I have seen people arguing, whether the URLs are case sensitive or not. And they have lot of confusions over it. So I decided to write this up, which will clear the doubts.

Are the URLs case sensitive ?

URLs have two parts

So, ere URLs are case-sensitive ? Should not be – but they sometimes are. Domain names are not case sensitive – for example http://www.apache.org/ and http://WWW.Apache.Org/ goes to the same location. But in the LAMP platform, the path is case sensitive…

http://www.apache.org/foundation/getinvolved.html is not

http://www.apache.org/Foundation/GetInvolved.HTML

But in the case of Microsoft IIS server, this is not true – try…

http://www.microsoft.com/WindowsServer2003/IIS/Default.mspx is the same as

http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2003/iis/default.mspx

The root cause of URLs to be like this coz of UNIX File System to be case-sensitive, while FAT32/NTFS filesystems in Windows are not.

For Developer point of view, who host the files on LINUX/UNIX Hosting, must not change the URL frequently ad must keep the name to be in small case for sake of uniformity.
