Re: [ia-55] Dash vs. Underscore

The standard for HTML5 is to use hyphens and not underscores.
 
If this issue applies for Javascript is there not a compromise?
 
One would think that Javascript would accommodate?

Hey Kate,
 
I've had trouble with hyphens when programming Javascript for websites. This might be what your client is talking about.

Hi all,
 
Are there any known usability differences between using a dash vs. an underscore in a file name?  My client cited usability, but I'm not aware of any issues, so figured I would ask.
 
Thanks!

Kate
