Web Design in a Nutshell, 3rd Edition

Use the text-transform property to change the capitalization of an element without retyping it in the source. This can make changing capitalization of a particular element (like headers) for an entire site as easy as changing one style sheet rule.

The default value is none, which leaves the text as it appears in the source (and resets any inherited value). The capitalize value displays the first letter in each word of the element in uppercase. The lowercase value makes all letters in the element lowercase, and likewise, the uppercase value makes all characters uppercase. The effects of these text-transform property examples are shown in Figure 18-9.
