in reply to What is the best way to capitalize a string?

You can use uc or lc built-in functions to change case. If you wanto to change case of first character only, then use ucfirst or lcfirst functions. 

$lower = "name";
$upper = "NAME";
print uc($lower),"\n"; ### This will print : NAME
print lc($upper),"\n"; ### This will print : name
print ucfirst($lower),"\n"; ## This will print : Name
print lcfirst($upper),"\n"; ## This will print : nAME
