How to automatically uppercase the first letter of value entered into html form with javascript

Zones: JavaScript, Regular Expressions, JScript

Hi Experts!

I'm currently using the attached code snippet for simple validation of a couple of form fields.

Now I want to make sure to uppercase the first letter of every word entered into the 'Name' field of the form.

How would I do it with javascript? Can you explain or comment the code to too so a javascript dummy like me knows how it works?

Thanks!

John

         
           
           
             function checkform ( form ){	
	
	if (form.Name.value == "" || form.Name.value == "first name" || form.Name.value.length < 2 ) {
		alert( "Please enter your first name." );
		form.Name.focus();
		form.Name.value = "";
		return false ;
  	}
  	if (form.Email1.value == "" || form.Email1.value == "primary email" || form.Email1.value.length < 5) {
    	alert( "Please enter your email address." );
		form.Email1.value = "";
    	form.Email1.focus();
    	return false ; 
	}
  // ** If all fields pass the check, submit the form **
  return true ;
}
