This is what I use for converting strings to sentence case:
function sentence_case($string) {
$sentences = preg_split('/([.?!]+)/', $string, -1,
PREG_SPLIT_NO_EMPTY|PREG_SPLIT_DELIM_CAPTURE);
$new_string = '';
foreach ($sentences as $key => $sentence) {
$new_string .= ($key & 1) == 0?
ucfirst(strtolower(trim($sentence))) :
$sentence.' ';
}
return trim($new_string);
}
print sentence_case('HMM. WOW! WHAT?');
// Outputs: "Hmm. Wow! What?"
