featherwebdiva Posted March 20, 2011 Share Posted March 20, 2011 Hi I'm new. These are some of the example strings I'm dealing with "update online SJ" "Change account GBBCDL" "CRM L" I was wondering if there is a built-in function or function(s) that could help me strip all the CAPS from the right of each string til it finds the first space. I'm not worried about those and would look much nicer to just display everything without that.

ignace Posted March 20, 2011 Share Posted March 20, 2011 I doubt there is such a function, but you can use: function strtolower_first_word($str) { $words = str_word_count($str, 1); if(empty($words)) return $str; $words[0] = strtolower($words[0]); return implode(' ', $words); } Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/231144-is-there-a-built-in-php-function/#findComment-1189856 Share on other sites More sharing options...
