Synopsis: $tolower(text) $toupper(text) Technical: This $toupper() function converts all occurrences of characters in the range a..z to their uppercase counterparts, A..Z. Its counterpart, $tolower(), does just the opposite, converting from A..Z to a..z. Practical: This basically converts the entire input string to all capital or all lowercase letters, depending on the function used. Returns: input string with case converted Examples: $toupper(Hello there.) returns "HELLO THERE." $tolower(Hi Bob!) returns "hi bob!" See Also: tr(6) Restrictions: These functions only work on 7-bit ascii letters. They will not convert 8-bit letters with the high bit set (i.e. European characters that have accents, graves, etc.). Use $tr() instead.
