Text Transformation
| Syntax: |
text-transform: <value>
|
| Possible Values: |
none | capitalize | uppercase | lowercase
|
| Initial Value: |
none
|
| Applies to: |
All elements
|
| Inherited: |

The text-transform property allows text to be transformed by one of four properties:
- capitalize (capitalizes first character of each word)
- uppercase (capitalizes all characters of each word)
- lowercase (uses small letters for all characters of each word)
- none (the initial value)
Examples:
H1 { text-transform: uppercase }
H2 { text-transform: capitalize }
The text-transform property should only be used to express a stylistic desire. It would be inappropriate, for example, to use text-transform to capitalize a list of countries or names.
