I always laugh when I see CD's and DVD's.

My wife did an assignment for Uni a few years ago and put in apostrophes in a number of places, I believe correctly, and the lecturer crossed them all out , eg.

"the web page's home page", I believe this is correct?

The other is putting 's at the end of words ending in an "s" already, like...can't think of one, maybe like (changed to Omaroo's suggestion)... "all of the dogs's toys", should be "all of the dogs' toys"?
