## Definition and Usage

The textTransform property sets or returns the case of a text.

## Syntax

Set the textTransform property:

Object.style.textTransform="none|capitalize|uppercase|lowercase|inherit"

Return the textTransform property:

Object.style.textTransform

Value | Description
--- | ---
none | No characters are converted. This is default
capitalize | The first character of each word is converted to uppercase
uppercase | All characters are converted to uppercase
lowercase | All characters are converted to lowercase
inherit | The value of the textTransform property is inherited from parent element

## Browser Support

<html>
<head>
<script>
function displayResult()
{
document.getElementById("p1").style.textTransform="capitalize";
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<p id="p1">This is some text.</p>
<br>
<button type="button" onclick="displayResult()">Convert text</button>
</body>
</html>
