string manipulation

[biscutty]

I have an input field that a user enters a string - first and last name.When the form is submitted how do i remove all the white space and change all characters to uppercase?

Anyone?

thanks

Well, there are a bunch of string functions you could use.

trim() will get rid of spaces on either end.

str_replace() will allow you to get rid of spaces in the middle of the names.

strtoupper() will convert to upper case.
