Capitalize the first letter of each sentence.

In the title.
Anyone knows how to?

Edit newthread.php and change the following line

$newpost['title'] = $_POST['subject'];

to

$newpost['title']=strtoupper($_POST['subject']{0}).substr($_POST['subject'], 1);

That didnt work.
But this wont do what i need as well. It willl only capitalize the 1st letter and not the letter at the start of a new sentence...

:surprised: EACH sentence? (in the title?) so every time it finds a .(period) in a post it's supposed to strtoupper the next character regardless of whether or not it's a sentence?

How many sentences do you put in your titles?

Oh, you mean your question is in the title... confusing~

So you want to capitalize the letter after a period regardless of why the period is used?

Yes. Basically...

You think it might have problems or something?

Well I just don't see the use/need for it. Also it could cause a little oddity in links with dots (among other things I suppose) -- not that it'd do actual harm in most cases...

Link?

If you add this after the require of global.php in newreply.php and newthread.php, it should work:

PHP Code:


		
			
$xr=0;$rvrt=0;

while($xr<strlen($_POST[message])){

if($rvrt==1){$_POST[message]{$xr}=strtoupper($_POST[message]{$xr});}

if($_POST[message]{$xr}=="."||$_POST[message]{$xr}==" "&&$rvrt==1){$rvrt=1;}else{$rvrt=0;}

$xr++;}

$xr++;}

it works good!
but there are some things...
1. it doesnt capitalize the first letter like i used to according to what Andy wrote which i have modded to the message...

2.it does capitalize when you go down a line...

here look at this post:

Ah, I forgot other punctuation marks...

PHP Code:


		
			
$_POST[message]=strtoupper($_POST[message]{0}).substr($_POST[message], 1);

$xr=0;$rvrt=0; while($xr<strlen($_POST[message])){ 

if($rvrt==1){$_POST[message]{$xr}=strtoupper($_POST[message]{$xr});} 

if($_POST[message]{$xr}=="."||$_POST[message]{$xr}==" "&&$rvrt==1||$_POST[message]{$xr}=="?"||$_POST[message]{$xr}=="!"){$rvrt=1;}else{$rvrt=0;} 

$xr++;}

(added in first char too)

you WANT it to capitalize on new lines too?
