Re: Upper or Lower Case

Hi Taz, What happens if they type "NeO", or "NEO", or "nEo", or "neO" (etc)? ;) Also, if you're using this in a large application (or intend to in the future), are you going to type out all of the names as you have done with the neo example? Bjorn's method is much better, and you're better off getting into good practice early.
