Trying to cApitalize only the second letter in a sentence

[cyborgeek]

<?php

 

$str = "capitalize

 

";

 

$str_implode = str_split($str);

 

$caps = true;

foreach($str_implode as $key=>$letter){

    if($caps){

        $out = strtoupper($letter);

        if($out <> " ") //not a space character

            $caps = false;

  

 

echo $str;

 

?>

 

// I realize this is an error unsure if I need to array() or convert case ??

Try this

$result = str_replace(substr($word,1,1),ucfirst(substr($word,1,1)),$word);

Use for..loop to loop through each character

$string = 'capitalize';
$new = '';

for ($i = 0, $count = strlen($string); $i < $count; $i++) {
	if ($i == 1) {
		$new .= strtoupper($string[$i]);
	} else {
		$new .= $string[$i];
	}
}

echo $new;

str_replace() is wasteful and will only work if you pass a $count=1 argument. A loop to copy the string is even worse.

 

$string = "capitalize";
$string[1] = strtoupper($string[1]);
