Manage links: how do I send title capitalized?
« on: December 23, 2013, 03:16:00 am »

Hi all,

In my database I have my song titles written like this: Abba - The day before you came.
In one of my links I want to send this information like this: Abba - The Day Before You Came (every first letter of the word in the Title (not the name) is capitalized)

This is my link right now: http:////lyrics.wikia.com//[Artist]:[Name]
But that is obviously not sending the right information.

What can I do to send it the way I want?

Thanks for helping me out on this one!

Thanks, Matt. It took some searching, but I managed to edit my link.

For people who bump into the same problem, this is the code I use now:

PSA: Direct links to functions on Expression wiki
« Reply #3 on: December 23, 2013, 11:55:55 am »

FYI: Function names have direct Wiki links in the expression language page.

   http://wiki.jriver.com/index.php/Expression_Language#FixCase

The first sentence of each Description starts out with "The function <function()>...", and <function()> is a link.  Links are always camel-cased function names following a hash-tag.
