This function converts any series of english words to Proper Casing. It also accounts for words such as 'a' and 'the'. To change what words are ignored, just change the $noUp array. function strProper($str) { $noUp = array('a','an','of','the','are','at','in'); $str = trim($str); $str = strtoupper($str[0]) . strtolower(substr($str, 1)); for($i=1; $i<strlen($str)-1; ++$i) { if($str[$i]==' ') { for($j=$i+1; $j<strlen($str) && $str[$j]!=' '; ++$j); //find next space $size = $j-$i-1; $shortWord = false; if($size<=3) { $theWord = substr($str,$i+1,$size); for($j=0; $j<count($noUp) && !$shortWord; ++$j) if($theWord==$noUp[$j]) $shortWord = true; } if( !$shortWord ) $str = substr($str, 0, $i+1) . strtoupper($str[$i+1]) . substr($str, $i+2); } $i+=$size; } return $str; } ---- Server IP: 64.71.164.2 Probable Submitter: 69.254.56.235 ---- X-Spam-Status: No, hits=3.1 required=5.0 tests=DATE_MISSING,FROM_NO_LOWER autolearn=no version=2.64 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.strtoupper.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/note/edit/68340 Del: integrated -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68340/integrated Del: useless -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68340/useless Del: bad code -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68340/bad+code Del: spam -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68340/spam Del: non-english -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68340/non-english Del: in docs -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68340/in+docs Del: other reasons-- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68340 Reject -- http://master.php.net/note/reject/68340 Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
