### 19.2.6 Forcing link text to lowercase

To make sure all hypertext links are lowercase in HTML output:

[HTMLOptions]

; MakeFileHrefsLower = No (leave case unchanged) or Yes

MakeFileHrefsLower = Yes

MakeFileHrefsLower is set to Yes in system configuration file d2htm_config.ini. If you want Mif2Go to leave case alone in hypertext links, you must override this setting in a project or local configuration file.

MakeFileHrefsLower applies to hypertext links and interfile cross references. When you use the FileName property to name the section that contains the cross-reference destination, the setting applies also to cross references within the same file (see §34.8.4.4 Creating special paragraph formats to name output files).

Case mismatch can cause links to fail

If you change the case of a FrameMaker file name in your document after you have created cross references or hypertext links to that file, the original case is preserved in the markers. If your HTML output will be deployed on a UNIX system, links based on those markers will fail because of the case mismatch. For JavaHelp, Oracle Help for Java, and Eclipse Help (which is based on Java), the links fail on Windows systems, also. Java was created by a UNIX company (Sun Microsystems) and uses UNIX rules, in which file-name case is always significant.
