I've never had any trouble, using all lowercase and underscores '_' in
place of spaces to separate words to aid the eye, which is a bit more
what the eye is used to reading than CamelCaps.
I like to try to name classes and id's in css as meaningfully as
possible, rather than describing the styling. i.e. i'd use .story_text
in preference to .middle_content, so that when I decide that the middle
really should be on the left, the name still remains correct. When there
are things that are just done for presentational reasons rather than
semantic ones,I give them obviously layout-orientated names like #column_one
Having said that, recently I've taken up using hyphenated filenames as
it's suggested Google et al. recognise each individual word that way.
But it seems counter-intuitive to me as the normal use of a hyphen is to
literally combine things together, not separate them...
