In the following tutorial I will explain how to capitalize the first letter in a Javascript string.
It's very simple - simply by grabbing the first letter, capitalizing it, then appending the rest of the string on the end.
var mystr = "hello world!";
mystr = mystr.substr(0,1).toUpperCase()+mystr.substr(1);
As simply as that,
mystr will now equal "
Hello world!".
It would be very easy to expand this script to capitalize the first letter in each word in a sentence, but I'll leave that up to you!
Have fun! If you have any issues, please
