here is what I am trying to do. I have titles to pages. I'm trying to capitalize the last letter of the first word in each string
Examples:
hellO
hellO how are you
I can get it to work with one word but I cant figure out how to do it if there is more than one word. Any help woul开发者_C百科d be great!!
Thanks so much!
try this
<?php
$title = "Hello World";
list($firstword, $rest) = explode(" ", $title, 2);
$firstword = strrev(ucfirst(strrev($firstword)));
$title = $firstword . " " . $rest;
print $title;
If you want to read more on any function see explode, strrev, list, ucfirst
Since you know the way how this works with 1 word, you only need to get the first word and then put your algorithm.
- Try
preg_replace_callback
with"/^(\w+)/"
- Replace the last char within the callback method.
preg_replace_callback: http://php.net/manual/en/function.preg-replace-callback.php
UPDATE - working code:
$string = "This is a test";
$string = preg_replace_callback(
'/^(\w+)/',
create_function(
'$matches',
'return yourUCLastAlgorithm($matches[0]);'
),
$string
);
echo $string;
UPDATE2 - using preg_replace with e modifier:
$string = "This is a test";
$string = preg_replace(
'/^(\w+)/e',
'yourUCLastAlgorithm("$1")',
$string
);
echo $string;
Try this:
$string = preg_replace('/^([ ]+)?([^ ]*)([a-z])?(.*)?$/i', "$1.$2.strtoupper($3).$4", $string);
