Although “dog.jpg” and “dog.JPG” and “Dog.jpg” and “DOG.JPG” all appear to be the same file, they are not considered the same when programming web pages on the Internet. Why is that? Consider the HTML code when answering this question. Please consider the different operating systems involved: Microsoft Windows, Apple Macintosh, and Linux (the electron server, Web servers in general)

They are not considered the same when programming web pages on the Internet, because it depends on what opereting system you're using to create web-site. Every OS use different character encoding capable. You can avoid that by entering utf-8 (or smth like that) in your html file.
