Re: [Erlyaws-list] yaws 1.78

Hi Steve,

Thanks. Just to add that, if case insensitive lookup is appropriate,  
then a case insensitive comparison could also be included in the  
configuration validations, for example:

*** ../yaws-1.78/src/yaws_config.erl	Wed Dec 31 00:04:33 2008
--- src/yaws_config.erl	Sat Jan 10 20:37:29 2009
***************
*** 183,189 ****
               ok
       end,
       %% second all servernames in a group must be unique
!     SN = lists:sort([X#sconf.servername || X <- List]),
       no_two_same(SN).

   no_two_same([H,H|_]) ->
--- 183,189 ----
               ok
       end,
       %% second all servernames in a group must be unique
!     SN = lists:sort([string:to_lower(X#sconf.servername) || X <-  
List]),
       no_two_same(SN).

   no_two_same([H,H|_]) ->


Regards,
John
