Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-07-12 03:23:10] datibbaw@php.net With the fix in place you can now do: ucwords(strtolower($foo), ' (')); ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-09-07 13:32:47] peebidj at hotmail dot com Description: ------------ Non alphanumeric characters are influencing the functionality of strtolower and ucwords. When a character in the example is right after a parenthesis, that character is not seen as the first in the word, and hence is not capitalized. This was reported and dismissed earlier, however, I feel that this is something that needs to be looked at, since common sense tells us that any non-alphanumeric character cannot be capitilized. Reproduce code: --------------- $foo = "Krung Thep (Bangkok)"; $bar = ucwords(strtolower($foo)); echo $foo; Expected result: ---------------- Krung Thep (Bangkok) Actual result: -------------- Krung Thep (bangkok) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=34407&edit=1
