You're absolutely correct!!!! I did not want to imply any preference in my
question by using Web, or web. Using the slash is common to indicate upper
and lower case. Yes, I know, that w/ is also used to indicate "with."

I noticed that someone posted earlier today with a reference to a "web
master" ("w" in lower case). Has anyone ever seen it spelled any other way?

Webmaster?
webmaster?
web master?
WEB master?

Thanks!
