Getting only Capital words


A584537

Recommended Posts

Hi, I'm using a C program to get a html page from a site, because I don't know how to use PHP sockets yet.
And, I'm using PHP to strip the tags and change   to a space and such.

What I need though, is to only get capitalised words. Here's an example:

[code]
CLERKS II

Sequel to Clerks. A calamity at Dante and Randall's shops sends them looking for new horizons...
CLICK

Michael Newman’s life is transformed when he is given a universal remote to control his life.
DIRTY SANCHEZ

An extreme version of Jackass.
[/code]
I only want the movie titles, and luckily they are all capitalised.
I want to get the capitalised words out of a string, $contents2.

How would I go about this?

Cheers
