Player names are case insensitive, yet hotlinks are case sensitive

This isn't necessarily a bug but a problem for people who try to make use of gametracker.

I love the player activity graphs and I decided to use them in my server's website, so owners can monitor admin and player activity with ease.

I have successfully embedded the graphs, and the links are inserted in the img tag by PHP, after the player's username.

This is the problem: for example, maybe 2 years ago a guy named DARIUS joined my server. He didn't play much so another guy named Darius kept playing on the name and has now reserved the name on the server.

His nickname is Darius but in order to get any of his stats on gametracker , I need to use DARIUS.


http://www.gametracker.com/images/graphs/player_time.php?name=DARIUS&host=jb.b-zone.ro:27015&start=-1m

links fine, but the name variable is DARIUS. His username is Darius so I can't automatically insert his name because then the link won't work

http://www.gametracker.com/images/graphs/player_time.php?name=Darius&host=jb.b-zone.ro:27015&start=-1m

Could you please, sometime in the near future, make the links case insensitive? if both Darius and DARIUS can't be stored in your database then there's no reason in making the links case sensitive
