I'd say you have more browser related problems than just new lines. We don't target IE 4 anymore do we? (I don't even target IE 5, it's not worth the pain). Again, my experience with the Mac world is nearly zero. I don't know which specific OS+Browser would cause the issue, but if it is only an old Mac with an old browser... well, I wouldn't care, as I don't care if a visitor with Windows 98+IE5 can't handle CSS and/or Javascript properly. You have to set a limit somewhere (otherwise, why don't we use HTML 3.2 and that's it?). Mine is at IE 6+ and latest FF/Opera/Safari. For the webs I develop, that's more than enough (it covers more than 90% of the market). Anyway... I'm just blind ignorant of what is the specific Mac OS and browser that can cause you trouble with line feeds (maybe all of them has this behavior, I repeat, I don't know).

Anyone who may be accessing the page and sending data from a pre-OS9 system, an Apple IIe (or any Apple II), or a Commodore, should be pushed through Rob's regexp without question.

Unless you only get line feeds ("\r"), this should work as well (for "\n" or
"\r\n" as line separators)
$text = getTextFromSomewhereElse();
$newText = join("\n", array_map('ucfirst', explode("\n", $text)));
(fist thing that came to my mind, just posting because of that... use the regex
if you want to be safe)

Thank you again Robert, and thank you too Daniel. I have gotten both methods to work flawlessly so far :). I am slowly learning by trial and error here, but sometimes a little push in the right direction does some good ^_^. Thanks again :).

Actually, the regex is slightly more complex if you want to cover
different carriage return / newline orderings and also catch the case
where the text doesn't begin with a newline...
$str =
preg_replace_callback(
'/(^|([\n\r]+))[^\n\r]/ms', 'ucCallback', $str );
Cheers,
Rob.

Here's a function to help you out. It's also online here:
[Demo]http://www.pilotpig.net/code-library/capitalize-line.php
[Source]
http://www.pilotpig.net/code-library/source.php?f=capitalize-line.php
function ucnewline($str) {
$arr = explode("\n",$str);
foreach($arr as $p) {
$ret .= ucfirst($p)."\n";
}
return $ret;
}

[PHP] Uppercase first letter of each new line?
I'm sure this is really easy to accomplish, but I just can't seem to figure it out. I have the following: $str = " mary had a little lamb it's fleece was white as snow and everywhere that mary went the lamb was sure to go"; Using ucfirst($str) will only capitalize the first letter of the string (duh :P). So I tried ucwords($str) and it obviously capitalized EVERY word. Also not desired. I couldn't find a php function to capitalize each new line, so I was thinking that regex would probably be needed and I am just no good at that @[EMAIL PROTECTED] I was reading up about it a bit, but it's still really confusing me. I was thinking something like splitting each new line into a separate string, capitalizing the first letter with ucfirst(), and then merging the string back together might work, but I am not sure how to find a new line. Any help would be appreciated Thank you in advance :). -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
