[PHP] Re: Capitalizing the first letter
Hello, In PHP ucfirst() function make a string's first character uppercase. But ralph smith have two words respectivetely ralph and smith. For this reason, if you call the ucfirst(ralph smith) function, you cannot see the Ralph Smith. You see the Ralph smith. If you want to see Ralph Smith string, you should use explode() function. With this functions, you returns an array of strings, each of which is a substring of string formed by splitting it on boundaries formed by the string delimiter.In the ralph smith delimeter characeter is blank line. You can use like a following examples in your code:) ?php $yourname = ralph smith; $name = explode ( , $yourname); $yournewname = ucfirst( $name[0] ) . . ucfirst ( $name[1] ); echo ( $yournewname ); ? -- Haydar TUNA Republic Of Turkey - Ministry of National Education Education Technology Department Ankara / TURKEY Web: http://www.haydartuna.net Todd Cary [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] I would like to write a filter that takes the text smith or SMith and returns Smith; same for ralph smith.
