URLs are case-sensitive ??

Hello All,

I'm implementing a store for a client using AbleCommerce and have come across a problem that I'm sure someone can help me resolve.

The client would like all the category and product URLs to be forced to lower-case.

I modified a control that I am using to force the generated URL to lower case, but when I click the link, I get a 404 error.
Example:
Actual URL: http://localhost/My-Product-P81.aspx
forced to: http://localhost/my-product-p81.aspx

When I click or type in the 2nd URL, I get a 404. If I restore functionality, or manually type the first URL everything works.

Is there some setting that allows me to specify/set all URLs to lower case?

Thanks,
-tomas

Right now it is a bug that they are case sensitive as far as the C and P in the url. The other wording is not case sensitive.

OK. We may be able to live with this!

I'll pass this on to my client.

Thanks.
