note 90165 added to function.mb-convert-case

Building upon Justin's and Alex's work... This function allows you to specify which delimiter(s) to explode on (not just the default space). Now you can correctly capitalize Irish names and hyphenated words (if you want)! function titleCase($string, $delimiters = array(" ", "-", "o'"), $exceptions = array("to", "a", "the", "of", "by", "and", "with", "II", "III", "IV", "V", "VI", "VII", "VIII", "IX", "X")) { /* * Exceptions in lower case are words you don't want converted * Exceptions all in upper case are any words you don't want converted to title case * but should be converted to upper case, e.g.: * king henry viii or king henry Viii should be King Henry VIII */ foreach ($delimiters as $delimiter){ $words = explode(strtoupper($delimiter), $string); $newwords = array(); foreach ($words as $word){ if (in_array(strtoupper($word), $exceptions)){ // check exceptions list for any words that should be in upper case $word = strtoupper($word); } elseif (!in_array($word, $exceptions)){ // convert to uppercase $word = ucfirst($word); } array_push($newwords, $word); } $string = join($delimiter, $newwords); } return $string; } ---- Server IP: 209.41.74.194 Probable Submitter: 144.167.69.80 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mb-convert-case.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/90165 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90165/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90165/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90165/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90165/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90165/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90165/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90165 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/90165 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
