ucfirst

(PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7)

ucfirst将字符串的首字母转换为大写

说明

ucfirst ( string $str ) : string

str 的首字符(如果首字符是字母)转换为大写字母,并返回这个字符串。

注意字母的定义取决于当前区域设定。例如,在默认的 "C" 区域,字符 umlaut-a(?)将不会被转换。

参数

str

输入字符串。

返回值

返回结果字符串。

范例

Example #1 ucfirst() 范例

<?php
$foo 
'hello world!';
$foo ucfirst($foo);             // Hello world!

$bar 'HELLO WORLD!';
$bar ucfirst($bar);             // HELLO WORLD!
$bar ucfirst(strtolower($bar)); // Hello world!
?>

Format the input string:

<?php

function ucsentences($string){
   
$parts = preg_split('/([^\.\!\?;]+[\.\!\?;"]+)/', strtolower($string), (-1), PREG_SPLIT_DELIM_CAPTURE|PREG_SPLIT_NO_EMPTY);
   
$r = '';
    foreach(
$parts as $key=>$sentence){
       
$r .= ucfirst(trim($sentence)) . ' ';
    }
   
$r = preg_replace('/\bi\b/', 'I', $r);
   
$r = preg_replace_callback('/("[a-z])/', function($m){ return strtoupper($m[0]);}, $r);
    return
rtrim($r);
}

$str = 'i\'m not sure. if this is good enough, but i thought: "hey, who know\'s. maybe i am right."';

?>
Outputs:
I'm not sure. If this is good enough, but I thought: "Hey, who know's. Maybe I am right."

Improved method of capitalizing first characters of sentences.
The first two manipulations (double spaces & all caps) are optional so can be removed without harm.

<?php
// return string with first letters of sentences capitalized
function ucsentence($str) {
  if (
$str) { // input
   
$str = preg_replace('/'.chr(32).chr(32).'+/', chr(32), $str); // recursively replaces all double spaces with a space
   
if (($x = substr($str, 0, 10)) && ($x == strtoupper($x))) $str = strtolower($str); // sample of first 10 chars is ALLCAPS so convert $str to lowercase; if always done then any proper capitals would be lost
   
$na = array('. ', '! ', '? '); // punctuation needles
   
foreach ($na as $n) { // each punctuation needle
     
if (strpos($str, $n) !== false) { // punctuation needle found
       
$sa = explode($n, $str); // split
       
foreach ($sa as $s) $ca[] = ucfirst($s); // capitalize
       
$str = implode($n, $ca); // replace $str with rebuilt version
       
unset($ca); //  clear for next loop
     
}
    }
    return
ucfirst(trim($str)); // capitalize first letter in case no punctuation needles found
 
}
}
?>

"heLLo EarthLing!" >> "HeLLo EarthLing!"
"I'M MOSTLY. caps!  " >> "I'm mostly. Caps!"
"ALLCAPS" >> "Allcaps"
"i haVe neST.ed punct,u.ation!  sp    A  c es.  and CAPs..  " >> "I haVe neST.ed punct,u.ation! Sp A c es. And CAPs.."

My version, converst first letter of the first word in the string to uppercase

public function mb_ucfirst($str) {
        $aParts = explode(" ",$str);
        $firstWord = mb_convert_case($aParts[0],MB_CASE_TITLE,"UTF-8");
        unset($aParts[0]);

        return $firstWord." ".implode(" ",$aParts);
    }

Implementation of multi-bytes ucfirst for "multiword"-strings (module mbstring is required):

<?php

public static function ucfirst($str)
{
   
$str = mb_strtolower($str);
   
$words = preg_split('/\b/u', $str, -1, PREG_SPLIT_NO_EMPTY);
    foreach (
$words as $word) {
       
$ucword = mb_strtoupper(mb_substr($word, 0, 1)) . mb_substr($word, 1);
       
$str = str_replace($word, $ucword, $str);
    }
    return
$str;
}

?>

Simple but workable solution:

<?php
mb_internal_encoding
("UTF-8");  // before calling the function

function utf8_ucfirst($str){
   
preg_match_all("~^(.)(.*)$~u", $str, $arr);
    return
mb_strtoupper($arr[1][0]).$arr[2][0];
    }
?>

In case you need a French version of ucfirst:

"été indien" => "Eté indien"
"?a va?" => "?a va?"

<?php
function frenchUcfirst($v) {
 
$lowCase  = "\\xE0\\xE1\\xE2\\xE3\\xE4\\xE5\\xE7\\xE8\\xE9\\xEA\\xEB\\xEC\\xED\\xEE\\xEF";
 
$lowCase .= "\\xF1\\xF2\\xF3\\xF4\\xF5\\xF6\\xF8\\xF9\\xFA\\xFB\\xFC\\xFD\\xFF\\u0161";
 
$upperCase = "AAAAAA\\xC7EEEEIIIINOOOOOOUUUUYYS";
  return
strtoupper(strtr(substr($v, 0, 1), $lowCase, $upperCase)) . substr($v, 1);
}
?>

Note:
- Latin non french accented characters follow the same rule:
"?nd?" => "And?"
- Non ASCII characters in the function are in HEX format to avoid encoding issue...

A proper Turkish solution;

<?php
function ucfirst_turkish($str) {
   
$tmp = preg_split("//u", $str, 2, PREG_SPLIT_NO_EMPTY);
    return
mb_convert_case(
       
str_replace("i", "?", $tmp[0]), MB_CASE_TITLE, "UTF-8").
       
$tmp[1];
}

$str = "iyilik güzelL?K";
echo
ucfirst($str) ."\n";   // Iyilik güzelL?K
echo ucfirst_turkish($str); // ?yilik güzelL?K
?>
vlknmtn at gmail dot com 17-Aug-2011 04:31
Turkish solution:

<?php
mb_internal_encoding
("UTF-8");
mb_regex_encoding("UTF-8");

function
tr_ilkbuyuk($text)
{
   
$text = str_replace("I","?",$text);
   
$text = mb_strtolower($text, 'UTF-8');
   
    if(
$text[0] == "i")
       
$tr_text = "?".substr($text, 1);
    else
       
$tr_text = mb_convert_case($text, MB_CASE_TITLE, "UTF-8");
   
    return
trim($tr_text);
}

function
tr_ucwords($text)
{
   
$p = explode(" ",$text);
    if(
is_array($p))
    {
       
$tr_text = "";
        foreach(
$p AS $item)
           
$tr_text .= " ".tr_ilkbuyuk($item);
           
        return
trim($tr_text);
    }
    else
        return
tr_ilkbuyuk($text);
}

$deger = "?i?ll?lsdg";

echo
tr_ucwords($deger);

?>

if you want to ucfirst for utf8 try this one:

<?php
function ucfirst_utf8($stri){
 if(
$stri{0}>="\xc3")
     return ((
$stri{1}>="\xa0")?
     (
$stri{0}.chr(ord($stri{1})-32)):
     (
$stri{0}.$stri{1})).substr($stri,2);
 else return
ucfirst($stri);
}
?>

It is quick, not language (but utf8) dependend and does not use any mb-functions such as mb_ucfirst.

for anyone wanting to ucfirst each word in a sentence this works for me:

<?php
function ucfirst_sentence($str)
{
    return
preg_replace('/\b(\w)/e', 'strtoupper("$1")', $str);
}
?>

If someone looks for the equivalent on Oracle DB, here it is: INITCAP. Hope this helps!

For lithuanian text with utf-8 encoding I use two functions (thanks [mattalexxpub at gmail dot com] and Svetoslav Marinov)

<?php
function my_ucfirst($string, $e ='utf-8') {
    if (
function_exists('mb_strtoupper') && function_exists('mb_substr') && !empty($string)) {
       
$string = mb_strtolower($string, $e);
       
$upper = mb_strtoupper($string, $e);
           
preg_match('#(.)#us', $upper, $matches);
           
$string = $matches[1] . mb_substr($string, 1, mb_strlen($string, $e), $e);
    }
    else {
       
$string = ucfirst($string);
    }
    return
$string;
}

function
sentence_case($string) {
   
$sentences = preg_split('/([.?!]+)/', $string, -1, PREG_SPLIT_NO_EMPTY|PREG_SPLIT_DELIM_CAPTURE);
   
$new_string = '';
    foreach (
$sentences as $key => $sentence) {
       
$new_string .= ($key & 1) == 0?
           
my_ucfirst(strtolower(trim($sentence))) :
           
$sentence.' '
    }
    return
trim($new_string);
}
?>

Simple function for use ucfirst with utf-8 encoded cyrylic text

<?php
   
public function capitalize_first($str) {
       
$line = iconv("UTF-8", "Windows-1251", $str); // convert to windows-1251
       
$line = ucfirst($line);
       
$line = iconv("Windows-1251", "UTF-8", $line); // convert back to utf-8
       
       
return $line;
    }
?>

For some reason this worked for me.

Mac OS 10.5.1
PHP 5.2.6

<?php
  
/**
     * ucfirst UTF-8 aware function
     *
     * @param string $string
     * @return string
     * @see http://ca.php.net/ucfirst

function my_ucfirst($string, $e ='utf-8') {
        if (
function_exists('mb_strtoupper') && function_exists('mb_substr') && !empty($string)) {
           
$string = mb_strtolower($string, $e);
           
$upper = mb_strtoupper($string, $e);
           
preg_match('#(.)#us', $upper, $matches);
           
$string = $matches[1] . mb_substr($string, 1, mb_strlen($string, $e), $e);
        } else {
           
$string = ucfirst($string);
        }
        return
$string;
    }
?>

This is what I use for converting strings to sentence case:

<?php
function sentence_case($string) {
   
$sentences = preg_split('/([.?!]+)/', $string, -1, PREG_SPLIT_NO_EMPTY|PREG_SPLIT_DELIM_CAPTURE);
   
$new_string = '';
    foreach (
$sentences as $key => $sentence) {
       
$new_string .= ($key & 1) == 0?
           
ucfirst(strtolower(trim($sentence))) :
           
$sentence.' ';
    }
    return
trim($new_string);
}

print
sentence_case('HMM. WOW! WHAT?');

// Outputs: "Hmm. Wow! What?"
?>

I believe that mb_ucfirst will be soon added in PHP, but for now this could be useful
<?php

if (!function_exists('mb_ucfirst') && function_exists('mb_substr')) {
    function
mb_ucfirst($string) {
       
$string = mb_strtoupper(mb_substr($string, 0, 1)) . mb_substr($string, 1);
        return
$string;
    }
}

?>

it also check is mb support enabled or not

Here's a function to capitalize segments of a name, and put the rest into lower case. You can pass the characters you want to use as delimiters.

i.e. <?php echo nameize("john o'grady-smith"); ?>

returns John O'Grady-Smith

<?php

function nameize($str,$a_char = array("'","-"," ")){   
   
//$str contains the complete raw name string
    //$a_char is an array containing the characters we use as separators for capitalization. If you don't pass anything, there are three in there as default.
   
$string = strtolower($str);
    foreach (
$a_char as $temp){
       
$pos = strpos($string,$temp);
        if (
$pos){
           
//we are in the loop because we found one of the special characters in the array, so lets split it up into chunks and capitalize each one.
           
$mend = '';
           
$a_split = explode($temp,$string);
            foreach (
$a_split as $temp2){
               
//capitalize each portion of the string which was separated at a special character
               
$mend .= ucfirst($temp2).$temp;
                }
           
$string = substr($mend,0,-1);
            }   
        }
    return
ucfirst($string);
    }

?>

Inspired by the lcfirst function a simple mb_lcfirst to cope with multibyte strings:

<?php
function mb_lcfirst($str, $enc = null)
{
  if(
$enc === null) $enc = mb_internal_encoding();
  return
mb_strtolower(mb_substr($str, 0, 1, $enc), $enc).mb_substr($str, 1, mb_strlen($str, $enc), $enc);
}
?>

@adefoor, Ken and Zee

Changing the case can only be done by understanding the text. Take for example "USA", "Sunday", "March", "I am ...", abbreviations like "prob." and so on.

One thing I would do to make this more unviersally work would be to add strtolower() around your $sentence.  Doing this will allow you to convert an all caps text block as well as an all lowercase text block.

<?php

function sentence_cap($impexp, $sentence_split) {
   
$textbad=explode($impexp, $sentence_split);
   
$newtext = array();
    foreach (
$textbad as $sentence) {
       
$sentencegood=ucfirst(strtolower($sentence));
       
$newtext[] = $sentencegood;
    }
   
$textgood = implode($impexp, $newtext);
    return
$textgood;
}

$text = "this is a sentence. this is another sentence! this is the fourth sentence? no, this is the fourth sentence.";
$text = sentence_cap(". ",$text);
$text = sentence_cap("! ",$text);
$text = sentence_cap("? ",$text);

echo
$text; // This is a sentence. This is another sentence! This is the fourth sentence? No, this is the fourth sentence.

?>
Ken Kehler 14-Mar-2007 12:03
@ zee: this should solve your !, ?, and any punctuations you want to add. It can probably be cleaned up a bit.

<?php

function sentence_cap($impexp, $sentence_split) {
   
$textbad=explode($impexp, $sentence_split);
   
$newtext = array();
    foreach (
$textbad as $sentence) {
       
$sentencegood=ucfirst($sentence);
       
$newtext[] = $sentencegood;
    }
   
$textgood = implode($impexp, $newtext);
    return
$textgood;
}

$text = "this is a sentence. this is another sentence! this is the fourth sentence? no, this is the fourth sentence.";
$text = sentence_cap(". ",$text);
$text = sentence_cap("! ",$text);
$text = sentence_cap("? ",$text);

echo
$text; // This is a sentence. This is another sentence! This is the fourth sentence? No, this is the fourth sentence.

Carel at divers information with dotcom 06-Jan-2007 02:55
I made a small change. Now it takes care of points in numbers

function ucsentence ($string){
   $string = explode ('.', $string);
   $count = count ($string);
   for ($i = 0; $i < $count; $i++){
       $string[$i]  = ucfirst (trim ($string[$i]));
       if ($i > 0){
           if ((ord($string[$i]{0})<48) || (ord($string[$i]{0})>57)) {
              $string[$i] = ' ' . $string[$i];
           }  
       }
   }
   $string = implode ('.', $string);
   return $string;
}

Some simple function for cyrillic and latin letters both:

function rucfirst($str) {
    if(ord(substr($str,0,1))<192) return ucfirst($str);
    else
    return chr(ord(substr($str,0,1))-32).substr($str,1);
}
Michael 12-Sep-2006 06:01
This is what you would expect php to deliver if there was a built-in function named ucsentence.

function ucsentence ($string){
    $string = explode ('.', $string);
    $count = count ($string);
    for ($i = 0; $i < $count; $i++){
        $string[$i]  = ucfirst (trim ($string[$i]));
        if ($i > 0){
            $string[$i] = '&nbsp;&nbsp;' . $string[$i];
        }
    }
    $string = implode ('.', $string);
    return $string;
}

A combination of the below functions to enable ucfirst for multibyte strings in a shared hosting environment (where you can not always count on mbstring to be installed):

<?php
function my_mb_ucfirst($str, $e='utf-8') {
    if (
function_exists('mb_strtoupper')) {
       
$fc = mb_strtoupper(mb_substr($str, 0, 1, $e), $e);
        return
$fc.mb_substr($str, 1, mb_strlen($str, $e), $e);
    }
    else {
       
$str = utf8_decode($str);
       
$str[0] = strtr($str[0],
           
"abcdefghyijklmnopqrstuvwxyz".
           
"\x9C\x9A\xE0\xE1\xE2\xE3".
           
"\xE4\xE5\xE6\xE7\xE8\xE9".
           
"\xEA\xEB\xEC\xED\xEE\xEF".
           
"\xF0\xF1\xF2\xF3\xF4\xF5".
           
"\xF6\xF8\xF9\xFA\xFB\xFC".
           
"\xFE\xFF",
           
"ABCDEFGHYIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ".
           
"\x8C\x8A\xC0\xC1\xC2\xC3\xC4".
           
"\xC5\xC6\xC7\xC8\xC9\xCA\xCB".

plemieux' function did not work for me without passing the encoding to every single mb function (despite ini_set('default_charset', 'utf-8') at the top of the script). This is the example that works in my application (PHP 4.3):

<?php
function my_mb_ucfirst($str, $e='utf-8') {
   
$fc = mb_strtoupper(mb_substr($str, 0, 1, $e), $e);
    return
$fc.mb_substr($str, 1, mb_strlen($str, $e), $e);
}
?>

Simple multi-bytes ucfirst():

<?php
function my_mb_ucfirst($str) {
   
$fc = mb_strtoupper(mb_substr($str, 0, 1));
    return
$fc.mb_substr($str, 1);
}
?>

This is a simple code to get all the 'bad words', stored in a database, out of the text. You could use str_ireplace but since that's installed on PHP5 only, this works as well. It strtolowers the text first then places capitals with ucfirst() where it thinks a capital should be placed, at a new sentence. The previous sentence is ended by '. ' then.

<?php
function filter($text){
   
$filters=mysql_query("SELECT word,result FROM filter");
    while(
$filter=mysql_fetch_array($filters)){
       
$text=str_replace($filter[word],$filter[result],strtolower($text));
       
$parts=explode(". ",$text);
        for(
$i=0;$i<count($parts);$i++){
           
$parts[$i]=ucfirst($parts[$i]);
        }
       
$text=implode(". ",$parts);
    }
    return
$text;
}
?>
12-Mar-2005 05:11
Ah, the last code were spoiled, here is the fixed one:

<?php

function uc_first($str){
   
$str[0] = strtr($str,
   
"abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz".
   
"\x9C\x9A\xE0\xE1\xE2\xE3".
   
"\xE4\xE5\xE6\xE7\xE8\xE9".
   
"\xEA\xEB\xEC\xED\xEE\xEF".
   
"\xF0\xF1\xF2\xF3\xF4\xF5".
   
"\xF6\xF8\xF9\xFA\xFB\xFC".
   
"\xFD\xFE\xFF",
   
"ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ".
   
"\x8C\x8A\xC0\xC1\xC2\xC3\xC4".
   
"\xC5\xC6\xC7\xC8\xC9\xCA\xCB".
   
"\xCC\xCD\xCE\xCF\xD0\xD1\xD2".
   
"\xD3\xD4\xD5\xD6\xD8\xD9\xDA".
   
"\xDB\xDC\xDD\xDE\x9F");
    return
$str;
}

?>

So, this function changes also other letters into uppercase, ucfirst() does only change: a-z to: A-Z.
steven at tux dot appstate dot edu 21-Jun-2004 12:14
Note: the return for this function changed in versions 4.3 when a string is passed of length 0.  In <4.2 false is returned and in >4.3 a string of length 0 is returned.

Example:

$name = ucfirst("");
var_dump($name);

$name = ucfirst("owen");
var_dump($name);

Results for <4.2:
bool(false) string(4) "Owen"

Results for >4.3:
string(0) "" string(4) "Owen"

In the event you sort of need multiple delimiters to apply the same action to, you can preg_replace this "second delimiter" enveloping it with your actual delimiter.
 
A for instance, would be if you wanted to use something like Lee's FormatName function in an input box designed for their full name as this script was only designed to check the last name as if it were the entire string.  The problem is that you still want support for double-barreled names and you still want to be able to support the possibility that if the second part of the double-barreled name starts with "mc", that it will still be formatted correctly.

This example does a preg_replace that surrounds the separator with your actual delimiter.  This is just a really quick alternative to writing some bigger fancier blah-blah function.  If there's a shorter, simpler way to do it, feel free to inform me.  (Emphasis on shorter and simpler because that was the whole point of this.) :D

Here's the example.  I've removed Lee's comments as not to confuse them with my own.

<?php

  
function FormatName($name=NULL)
   {
       if (empty(
$name))
           return
false;

      
$name = strtolower($name);
      
$name = preg_replace("[\-]", " - ",$name); // Surround hyphens with our delimiter so our strncmp is accurate
      
if (preg_match("/^[a-z]{2,}$/i",$name))  // Simple preg_match if statement
      
{
          
          
$names_array = explode(' ',$name);  // Set the delimiter as a space.
   
          
for ($i = 0; $i < count($names_array); $i++)
           {
               if (
strncmp($names_array[$i],'mc',2) == 0 || ereg('^[oO]\'[a-zA-Z]',$names_array[$i]))
               {
                  
$names_array[$i][2] = strtoupper($names_array[$i][2]);
               }
              
$names_array[$i] = ucfirst($names_array[$i]);
              
           }
   
          
$name = implode(' ',$names_array);
          
$name = preg_replace("[ \- ]", "-",$name); //  Remove the extra instances of our delimiter
          
return ucwords($name);
          
       }
   }

?>

Here is a handy function that makes the first letter of everything in a sentence upercase. I used it to deal with titles of events posted on my website ... I've added exceptions for uppercase words and lowercase words so roman numeral "IV" doesn't get printed as "iv" and words like "a" and "the" and "of" stay lowercase.

function RemoveShouting($string)
{
 $lower_exceptions = array(
        "to" => "1", "a" => "1", "the" => "1", "of" => "1"
 );
                                     
 $higher_exceptions = array(
        "I" => "1", "II" => "1", "III" => "1", "IV" => "1",
        "V" => "1", "VI" => "1", "VII" => "1", "VIII" => "1",
        "XI" => "1", "X" => "1"
 );

 $words = split(" ", $string);
 $newwords = array();
 
 foreach ($words as $word)
 {
        if (!$higher_exceptions[$word])
                $word = strtolower($word);
        if (!$lower_exceptions[$word])
                $word = ucfirst($word);
         array_push($newwords, $word);
 
 }
       
 return join(" ", $newwords); 
}
