In this article I wrote a simple program that will allow the user to give a sentence and then our program will capital the first letter of the words in the given sentence using JavaScript and JQuery. The code is very simple and easy to understand. Combining JavaScript and JQuery is much fun and productive learning experience in programming in my own opinion only. Thanks guys for the support and visiting my website.
I hope you will find my work useful and beneficial. If you have some questions about programming, about my work please send mu an email at jakerpomperada@gmail.comand jakerpomperada@yahoo.com. People here in the Philippines can contact me at my mobile number 09173084360.
Thank you very much and Happy Programming.
