This is example of converting strings to proper case (as we know it from VB). It shows use of PHP string functions explode(), substr() and trim() along with case converting functions. It's quite simple ! <?php function properCase($strIn) { $arrTmp = explode(" ", trim($strIn)); for($i=0; $i < count($arrTmp);$i++) { $firstLetter = substr($arrTmp[$i],0,1); $rest = substr($arrTmp[$i],1,strlen($arrTmp[$i])); $arrOut[$i] = strtoupper($firstLetter).strtolower($rest); } for($j=0; $j < count($arrOut); $j++) $retVal .= $arrOut[$j]." "; return trim($retVal); } ?> Hope this can be usefull to someone (I know it was to me ...). --was-- This is example of converting strings to proper case (as we know it from VB).
