Try using CapFirst() from cflib.org, works great, though you will still have
to write a regex for things like "McMillan". 

Thanks,

Subject: Proper Case

Just wondering if there is an Easier way of doing these things.

By default I submit all text fields to the DB:

dbvalue = '#lcase(form.field)#'

then with CSS Style my outputs as

<span style="text-transform:capitalize">#dbvalue#</span>

for fields Like Name or Address...

Is this the best way to be handling this?  Or is their some way to pass the
form field Value pre converted to Proper before it is inserted?

I've burned by data entry ppl that suck before.
