This is basically the same as Jim Thome's script above but it tests for numbers also. So if
you have 3rd it won't end up 3Rd.
function ucase_words($txt)
{
$i = 0;
$txt = strtolower($txt);
while ($i < strlen($txt))
{
if (ord(substr($txt, $i, 1)) > 96 && ord(substr($txt, $i, 1)) < 123) // any
lower case letter
{
if ($i == 0)//first letter should be upper case
{
$newtxt .= strtoupper(substr($txt, $i, 1));
} else {//check for preceding letter or number, so things like 3rd wont be 3Rd
if ((ord(substr($txt, $i - 1, 1)) > 96 && ord(substr($txt, $i - 1 ,
1)) < 123) || (ord(substr($txt, $i - 1, 1)) > 47 && ord(substr($txt, $i - 1, 1)) <
58))
{
$newtxt .= substr($txt, $i, 1);
} else {
$newtxt .= strtoupper(substr($txt, $i, 1));
}
}
} else {
$newtxt .= substr($txt, $i, 1);
}
$i++;
}
return($newtxt);
}
