## D.2 Case Sensitivity

One major difference between Navigator and Internet Explorer is that the "object model" (as Microsoft calls it) in Internet Explorer is not case-sensitive. Because IE can also be scripted with the non-case-sensitive VBScript language, all the HTML and browser objects such as Window, Document and Form are not case sensitive. Thus, in IE, you could write code that invoked `DOCUMENT.WRITE()` instead of `document.write()`. Don't expect code like this to work in Navigator, however! See Chapter 2, Lexical Structure, for details.
