AS3 my own implementation of capFirst()
I'm just studying a little bit of Flex and Action Script 3. Basically to be able to build some tiny gadgets using Apollo.
While building one of them, I came up with the following function:
private function capFirst(txt:String):String{
var str:String = txt;
var aSTR:Array = str.split(" ");
var i:int;
var uString:String;
var newStr:String = "";
var strSpace:String = "";
for (i = 0; i < aSTR.length; i++) {
uString = aSTR[i].substr(0, 1).toUpperCase() + aSTR[i].substr(1);
newStr = newStr + strSpace + uString
strSpace = " ";
}
return newStr
}
var str:String = txt;
var aSTR:Array = str.split(" ");
var i:int;
var uString:String;
var newStr:String = "";
var strSpace:String = "";
for (i = 0; i < aSTR.length; i++) {
uString = aSTR[i].substr(0, 1).toUpperCase() + aSTR[i].substr(1);
newStr = newStr + strSpace + uString
strSpace = " ";
}
return newStr
}
Basically what it does is take all the first letters of each word of the string given and return them in upper case.
I think I've seen this before somewhere ;-).
Not sure if there's any easier way of doing that, but for my first steps it's just fine.
