Re: Match upper and lower case

I downvoted you here, i strongly believe that these kind of questions can be found if a little effort would be put in searching older nodes, google, perldoc, books etc. (and so you learn more too!)
This is imho not a question belonging here anymore (and cirtenly not at The Monastery Gates), thinking, reading and searching should be done before asking, this is lazy.

Jbrugger, I agree, but maybe the better question is why this question was approved and front-paged ?? node_id=17688 explains the process . Not the first loose approval lately, I think .	[reply]

Nothing wrong with approving this node that I can see. If we didn't approve questions that could be self-answered by 30 or less minutes of searching/reading, we wouldn't have very many approved questions.	[reply]

It's at least possible that someone might have looked for documentation but because they were using the wrong keywords not have found anything useful. However, I too downvoted this node because the poster didn't even say that he had looked, let alone where he had looked.	[reply]
