I'm writing an asp.net application. I have a textbox on a webform and I want to force whatever the user types to upper case. I'd like to do this on the front end. You should also note that there is a validation control on this textbox, so I want to make sure the solution doesn't interfere with the asp.net validation. Clarification: It a...
When doing case-insensitive comparisons, is it more efficient to convert the string to upper case or lower case? Does it even matter? It is suggested in this SO post that C# is more efficient with ToUpper because "Microsoft optimized it that way." But I've also read this argument that converting ToLower vs. ToUpper depends on what you...
This is mostly a theoretical question I'm just very curious about. (I'm not trying to do this by coding it myself or anything, I'm not reinventing wheels.) My question is how the uppercase/lowercase table of equivalence works for Unicode. For example, if I had to do this in ASCII, I'd take a character, and if it falls withing the [a-z]...

Hello, If have a following element in my XSL file: <xsl:value-of select="replace(lower-case(@name), '_([a-z0-9])', '$1')" /> For example from 'get_polygene_lubricants' it makes 'getpolygenelubricants'. What I want to do is to replace the first letter after '_' with the uppercase variant of the letter. I googled, read documentation, ...
I read up someplace, that there are characters other than A-Z that have a lowercase equivalent, in Unicode. Which could these be, and why would any other character need an upper and lower case? ...

I was wondering if anyone knew why some programming languages that I see most frequently spelled in all caps (like an acronym), are also commonly written in lower case. FORTRAN, LISP, and COBOL come to mind but I'm sure there are many more. Perhaps there isn't any reason for this, but I'm curious to know if any of these changes are d...

I try to use upper-case() in an XPATH, my parser is MSXML 4.0, and I get : upper-case is not a valid XSLT or XPath function. Is it really not implemented ? ...
I was looking for a way to transform text entered into the textctrl field to uppercase. I tried using a validator and transforming the value of the key event object to the uppercase letter char value using 'ord' however I could not find any 'set' methods. I may be able to access the event class variable directly as class variables in p...
I am currently using the latest Oracle sql developer. I just have one nuisance here. When I do auto-complete of table names or columns, they show up in lower case. As most people I do have coding guidelines in SQL statements and I usually want table names, column names, and any other identifiers in all capitals. I tried to check the se...
Hi, I am trying to get a xpath query using the xpath function lower-case or uppper-case, but they seem to not work in selenium (where I test my xpath before I apply it). Example that does NOT work: //*[.=upper-case('some text')] I have no problem locating the nodes I need in complex path and even using aggregated functions, as long as ...
Hi, I'm writing bug tracking software in PHP, and today I saw this in another bug tracker: http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=12017 Now I want to add a feature in my software which will block titles where at least 75% of all characters is uppercase. How can I do this? Thanks, P.S. CSS will not work, because, for example if you have the w...
I heard someone say that in C#, capital Decimal is using more memory than lower case decimal, because Decimal is resolved to the lowercase decimal and that requires memory. Is that true? ...
I want to convert strings to lower or upper case in JavaScript in the locale I wanted. I think standard functions like toUpperCase() and toLocaleUpperCase() do not satisfy this need. toLocale functions do not behave as they should. For example in Safari 4, Chrome 4 Beta, Firefox 3.5.x on my system it converts strings with Turkish charact...
I am using this PHP code to redirect any form of UPPERCASE in URI's to lowercase. There are three exceptions: if the URI includes either "adminpanel" or "search" there is no redirect, also if it already is lowercase there is no redirect Do you see any way to improve the function in PHP? $trailed = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']; $pos1 = strpo...
