How do I display the first letter as uppercase?

mysql, php

Solution

seeing it is tagged PHP: either

`string ucfirst ( string $str );`

to uppercase first letter of the first word

or

`string ucwords ( string $str );`

to uppercase the first letter of every word

you might want to use those in combination with

`string strtolower ( string $str );`

to normalize all names to lower case first.

Problem

I have fname and lname in my database, and a name could be stored as JOHN DOE or john DOE or JoHN dOE, but ultimately I want to display it as John Doe fname being John and lname being Doe
