PHP in a Nutshell

Name

ucfirst()

Synopsis

    string ucfirst ( string str )

The ucfirst() function takes one string parameter and converts the first letter of the string to an uppercase character, leaving the others untouched.

    $string = "i like to program in PHP";
    $a = strtoupper($string);

In that example, $a will be set to "I like to program in PHP".
