For example: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_Graphics (note the uppercase G) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_graphics (note the lowercase g) These are actually two completely different web pages, despite the similarity of the URL. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to www.yahoo.com (not related to the bug) 2. Visit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_Graphics (note the uppercase "G") 3.
