It is really annoying when websites decide they know better how to spell or capitalize your name, especially if your website is to be used internationally. For example in the Netherlands, certain last names have an 'infix' between first and last name, which should be lower case when both first and last name are present, and only capitalized if the first name is absent. — Mark Rotteveel, Sep 19 '15 at 07:43

Why use javascript, when you can use CSS?

button:focus{text-transform:capitalize;}

Its quite simple :

    var a = MakeUpperCase("dean jones");
    function MakeUpperCase(str)
    {
        var strsplt = str.split(" ");
        var completestr ="";
        for(var i=0;i<strsplt.length;i++){
        var d =               strsplt[i].replace(strsplt[i].charAt(0),strsplt[i].charAt(0).toUpperCase());
    completestr += d + " ";
}
alert(completestr);
}

thanks it working ,i have one more question y u declare this completestr to blank thn in loop u used it..can u explain – Deepak Sabharwal Sep 19 '15 at 09:25
I have used completestr to return string from function. I have taken for loop for passing any kind of string like dean jones larry so it will return string Dean Jones Larry. you can do anything it depends on your requirement. – Anupam Khasia Sep 19 '15 at 09:44
