Re: Capitalizing the first letter

Hello Again,
You can use ucwords() functions except my method. This function
returns a string with the first character of each word in str capitalized,
if that character is alphabetic. :)

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 );
?>

returns "Smith"; same for "ralph smith". Is the a good source on using
filters this way?
