Did anyone figure out how to capitalize the first word?

Code (find) Select Expand

// At this point, we want to make sure the subject isn't too long.

Code (before it, add) Select Expand

$_POST['subject'] = ucfirst($_POST['subject']);

Not tested.

Worked... Only downfall is that if the sentence starts with a number, it won't capitalize the first word:

For example: 10 flies flew remains as 10 flies flew without capitalizing the first f.

Why would you want to capitalize after a number anyways? The number is the beginning of the phrase, it looks worse with it capitalized.

That is grammatically correct as the number is the first word of the sentence. 10 Flies flew. is grammatically wrong.

10 Flies flew. is grammatically wrong.

And as Fortytwo said, it looks awful unless capitalized case is use i.e. 10 Flies Flew.

I don't think so. I was agreeing with you and in addition expanding on what Fortytwo said.
