Use http://php.net/manual/en/function.strtoupper.php

you can make an array with the words you want to modify and check if the word is in that array

Depends on which data variable you want to uppercase. Tell us the variable used to displaying those certain words.

<?php
echo strtoupper($string);
?>

Thanks for the help, think i might be able to figure it out now

Or you can do it using CSS:

.class{
text-transform: uppercase;}

@bjskid: no, if he has some text and wants to capitalize certain words in it, CSS alone won't be enough, only if he already has some sort of markup around those words. Else he needs a scripting language, like JS or PHP to find the words.

Yes, I know that. But I was just giving him another alternative.

<?php
$text = array(
        'hd',
        'pdf',
        'dvd'
);

//set array map
$output = array_map('strtoupper', $text);
?>
