case-sensitive

How can I check to see if a database in SQL Server is case-sensitive? I have previously been running the query: SELECT CASE WHEN 'A' = 'a' THEN 'NOT CASE SENSITIVE' ELSE 'CASE SENSITIVE' END But I am looking for other ways as this has actually given me issues in the past. Edit - A little more info: An existing product has many pre-written stored procedures. In a stored procedure @test != @TEST depending on the sensitivity of the server itself. So what I'm looking for is the best way to check the server for its sensitivity. Raj More Collation can be set at various levels: Server Database Column

I have the following: if (referrer.indexOf("Ral") == -1) { ... } What I like to do is to make Ral case insensitive, so that it can be RAl , rAl , etc. and still match. Is there a way to say that Ral has to be case-insensitive? Add .toLowerCase() after referrer . This method turns the string in a lower case string. Then, use .indexOf() using ral instead of Ral . if (referrer.toLowerCase().indexOf("ral") === -1) { The same can also be achieved using a Regular Expression (especially useful when you want to test against dynamic patterns): if (!/Ral/i.test(referrer)) { // ^i = Ignore case flag for

If I look at Google then this URL works fine: http://www.google.com/intl/en/about/corporate/index.html but this one with "ABOUT" is not working: http://www.google.com/intl/en/ABOUT/corporate/index.html Should the URL be case sensitive? jldupont According to W3's " HTML and URLs " they should: There may be URLs, or parts of URLs, where case doesn't matter, but identifying these may not

I was digging through some code, and I found some calls to mySQL_fetch_array . Is PHP case sensitive about function names? I recall reading this somewhere but can't seem to find any reference to it. SIFE I am quoting from this : Note: Function names are case-insensitive, though it is usually good form to call functions as they appear in their declaration. So, its looks like user-defined functions are not case-sensitive, there was a vote for making functions/objects under PHP5 case-sensitive. No. PHP functions are not case sensitive. TL;DR: class names are case-insensitive, but use always the
