Is it possible to format the data users enter on a form?
Some users type all in capitals and other all in lowercase which make our data look scruffy.

Hi Kevin,
You can try and enforce this in the browser using JavaScript but you’d be better off post-processing the text after the user submits the form. What are you doing with the submitted data? You can modify your form handler code to adjust the text before emailing it or inserting it in your database.
Regards,
Tim.

Hi Tim,
Easy to juggle with the data and format it. I use Data Extractor and Numbers, but just thought I’d try and save some time.

It’s very easy to make a global change if you are willing to ignore a lot of special cases. But to make a capitalization routine that is aware of proper nouns, InterCaps, articles, abbreviations, and acronyms – that’s gonna hurt your head some.
