Perhaps the data he is working with is coming from an external source where
everything is typed in all caps. While there are JavaScript and PHP based
ways to do what he desires, he may not be a coder in the regard, and is
looking for a way within his own means of converting the data to a more
presentable format.
Remember, we only know the situation in regards to what we're told. Being
disparaging about his question isn't what this list is about: He offered a
valid question which, unfortunately for what he wanted, was shot down.
To get a bit more off topic, Chang, if you don't know JavaScript well, you
can accomplish it using something like this:
document.onload = function() {
document.getElementById("YouIDNameHere").toLowerCase();
}
And then rely on the text-transform: capitalize to make it look decent.
