Re: ucwords() usage QUICKIE

ucwords() is a function. You must assign what it returns to a variable. ucwords($sql); will work. It'll capitalize each word of $sql. However, you don't save the result anywhere, so it's lost... ---John Holmes... ----- Original Message ----- From: "Daniel Negron/KBE" <danegron@kbelectronics.net> To: "1LT John W.
