Googlebot Meta tag?

is meta tag case sensitive?

[emione]

Hi everyone,

I would like to keep a couple pages out of the Google index and according to one of Google's help pages it says to use the following meta tag
<META NAME="GOOGLEBOT" CONTENT="NOINDEX, NOFOLLOW">

Does the meta tag have to be all upper case capitalized letters as shown above?

Thanks.

case doesn't matter.

If you only want to avoid Google to index particular pages,
it suffices to use:

<META NAME="GOOGLEBOT" CONTENT="NOINDEX">

Googlebot would keep following the links in that page.
