The ucwords Function

The ucwords function converts the first character of each word in a string to uppercase. Works correctly only with Latin characters (single-byte characters).

Syntax

ucwords(string $string, string $separators = " \t\r\n\f\v"): string

Example

Let's convert each word of the string to uppercase:

<?php echo ucwords('lorem ipsum dolor sit amet'); ?>

Code execution result:

'Lorem Ipsum Dolor Sit Amet'
