Case

This article should note, or make more clear, how the case of anchors in HTML can affect this function in certain web browsers.

Goes back to an old situation where some browsers (Firefox) distinguish between upper and lower case, and some (IE) don't.

So the code

<a name = "thisanchor">

then

<A href = "#ThisAnchor">ThisAnchor</a>

will work in IE, but in Firefox the anchor value will be ignored as it "does not exist".
