[Javascript] Re: two javascript oddities

[Shawn Milo]

Anne,

Gregor nailed it exactly. I found that I couldn't retrieve the file in
question with a batch file containing these lines:

wget http://www.hudsonreview.com/javascript/FULL-TEXT-TOCwi05.JS
wget http://www.hudsonreview.com/javascript/FULL-TEXT-TOCau04.JS
wget http://www.hudsonreview.com/javascript/FULL-TEXT-TOCsu04.JS
wget http://www.hudsonreview.com/javascript/FULL-TEXT-TOCsp04.JS
wget http://www.hudsonreview.com/javascript/FULL-TEXT-TOCwi04.JS
wget http://www.hudsonreview.com/javascript/FULL-TEXT-TOCau03.JS
wget http://www.hudsonreview.com/javascript/FULL-TEXT-TOCsu03.JS

But when I changed the 05 file's extension to js (lower-case), I had no problem.
It's the way your web server is set up, but it's actually a good
thing. I also agree
with Gregor's method of always using all-lower-case filenames.
