if string is all in uppercase, you must convert it to lower first; thusly: $iwant=ucwords(strtolower("THIS STRING IS ALL UPPERCASE")); . dunno why it doesn't check that- but there ya go, what ya gonna do?

Mildly annoying, only spaces are considered whitespace by this function. So words right after linebreaks do not get capitalized. An explode/implode can help here.

$temp = explode ("\n", $capthis);
array_walk (&$temp, ucwords);
$capthis = implode ("\n", $temp);

I've had trouble with the ucwords command. I have found that the following is a reasonable substitute where crumb is the string that you want to make the words upper case.
<pre>
$nibble=explode (" ", $crumb);
$count=count($nibble);
$num=0;
while ($num<$count){
$nibble[$num]=ucfirst($nibble[$num]);
$num++;
}
$crumb=implode(" ",$nibble);
</pre>

There are actually many cases where this routine doesn't work well. Any text preceeded by ( , " or - ; even text like T.G.I. which once converted to lower case then using ucwords you still end up with T.g.i. It would be nice if the routine would look at each word and ignore non-alphabetic characters as part of the word. Any other solution would be welcome.
