My quick and dirty ucname (Upper Case Name) function. <?php //FUNCTION function ucname($string) { $string =ucwords(strtolower($string)); foreach (array('-', '\'') as $delimiter) { if (strpos($string, $delimiter)!==false) { $string =implode($delimiter, array_map('ucfirst', explode($delimiter, $string))); } } return $string; } ?> <?php //TEST $names =array( 'JEAN-LUC PICARD', 'MILES O\'BRIEN', 'WILLIAM RIKER', 'geordi la forge', 'bEvErly CRuSHeR' ); foreach ($names as $name) { print ucname("{$name}\n"); } //PRINTS: /* Jean-Luc Picard Miles O'Brien William Riker Geordi La Forge Beverly Crusher */ ?> You can add more delimiters in the for-each loop array if you want to handle more characters. ---- Server IP: 64.71.164.2 Probable Submitter: 129.42.208.185 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.ucwords.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/96179 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/96179/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/96179/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/96179/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/96179/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/96179/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/96179/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/96179 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/96179 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
