There are a lot of lengthy examples on doing proper case. If you just need to have the first letter of the string capitalized and the rest lower case, just do this: <?php $string = strtolower($string); $string = substr_replace($string, strtoupper(substr($string, 0, 1)), 0, 1); ?> If you need to have all the words in a sentence like that, just set it up like this: <?php $words = explode(" ", $string); for($i=0; $i<count($words); $i++) { $string = strtolower($words[$i]); $string = substr_replace($string, strtoupper(substr($string, 0, 1)), 0, 1); $pString .= "$string "; } ?> Obviously, you will have a bit more work ahead of you if you want to do anything fancy, but I didn't need anything fancy and I know there are thousands of applications that don't need anything fancy, so keeping it simple works better. :) ---- Server IP: 216.194.113.175 Probable Submitter: 69.252.131.134 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.strtoupper.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/70593 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/70593/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/70593/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/70593/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/70593/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/70593/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/70593/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/70593 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/70593 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
