Title: Capitalizing First Letter of Names
Post by: jac on February 28, 2008, 03:07:34 am

Is there any way to capitalize the first letter of the Firstname and Surname fields on a sign up form.  I currently have to go in and alter it manually each time someone inputs lower or upper case only.  I want jo bloggs or JO BLOGGS formatted "Jo Bloggs"

Thx

Hi John,

You could do some "pre-POST" processing on the input with JavaScript.

Check out this Google search (http://www.google.com/search?q=javascript+capitalize+form+input).

ListMail's name-based message codes (First Name, Last Name, Full Name) all have options to capitalize user data when they are processed in your messages.  However, the data will still be stored in the database / administrator interface without the proper capitalization unless you use JavaScript.
