我对这个问题的简单版本是:

    function titlecase(str){
    var arr=[];  
    var str1=str.split(' ');
    for (var i = 0; i < str1.length; i++) {
    var upper= str1[i].charAt(0).toUpperCase()+ str1[i].substr(1);
    arr.push(upper);
     };
      return arr.join(' ');
    }
    titlecase('my name is suryatapa roy');

这个解决方案将标点符号考虑到新句子中，处理引用，将小词转换为小写，忽略首字母缩写或全大写单词。

var stopWordsArray = new Array("a", "all", "am", "an", "and", "any", "are", "as", "at", "be", "but", "by", "can", "can't", "did", "didn't", "do", "does", "doesn't", "don't", "else", "for", "get", "gets", "go", "got", "had", "has", "he", "he's", "her", "here", "hers", "hi", "him", "his", "how", "i'd", "i'll", "i'm", "i've", "if", "in", "is", "isn't", "it", "it's", "its", "let", "let's", "may", "me", "my", "no", "of", "off", "on", "our", "ours", "she", "so", "than", "that", "that's", "thats", "the", "their", "theirs", "them", "then", "there", "there's", "these", "they", "they'd", "they'll", "they're", "they've", "this", "those", "to", "too", "try", "until", "us", "want", "wants", "was", "wasn't", "we", "we'd", "we'll", "we're", "we've", "well", "went", "were", "weren't", "what", "what's", "when", "where", "which", "who", "who's", "whose", "why", "will", "with", "won't", "would", "yes", "yet", "you", "you'd", "you'll", "you're", "you've", "your");

// Only significant words are transformed. Handles acronyms and punctuation
String.prototype.toTitleCase = function() {
    var newSentence = true;
    return this.split(/\s+/).map(function(word) {
        if (word == "") { return; }
        var canCapitalise = true;
        // Get the pos of the first alpha char (word might start with " or ')
        var firstAlphaCharPos = word.search(/\w/);
        // Check for uppercase char that is not the first char (might be acronym or all caps)
        if (word.search(/[A-Z]/) > 0) {
            canCapitalise = false;
        } else if (stopWordsArray.indexOf(word) != -1) {
            // Is a stop word and not a new sentence
            word.toLowerCase();
            if (!newSentence) {
                canCapitalise = false;
            }
        }
        // Is this the last word in a sentence?
        newSentence = (word.search(/[\.!\?:]['"]?$/) > 0)? true : false;
        return (canCapitalise)? word.replace(word[firstAlphaCharPos], word[firstAlphaCharPos].toUpperCase()) : word;
    }).join(' ');
}

// Pass a string using dot notation:
alert("A critical examination of Plato's view of the human nature".toTitleCase());
var str = "Ten years on: a study into the effectiveness of NCEA in New Zealand schools";
str.toTitleCase());
str = "\"Where to from here?\" the effectivness of eLearning in childhood education";
alert(str.toTitleCase());

/* Result:
A Critical Examination of Plato's View of the Human Nature.
Ten Years On: A Study Into the Effectiveness of NCEA in New Zealand Schools.
"Where to From Here?" The Effectivness of eLearning in Childhood Education. */

与John Resig的解决方案一样功能齐全，但作为一行程序:(基于此github项目)

function toTitleCase(e){var t=/^(a|an|and|as|at|but|by|en|for|if|in|of|on|or|the|to|vs?\.?|via)$/i;return e.replace(/([^\W_]+[^\s-]*) */g,function(e,n,r,i){return r>0&&r+n.length!==i.length&&n.search(t)>-1&&i.charAt(r-2)!==":"&&i.charAt(r-1).search(/[^\s-]/)<0?e.toLowerCase():n.substr(1).search(/[A-Z]|\../)>-1?e:e.charAt(0).toUpperCase()+e.substr(1)})};

console.log( toTitleCase( "ignores mixed case words like iTunes, and allows AT&A and website.com/address etc..." ) );

如果上述解决方案中使用的正则表达式让你感到困惑，试试下面的代码:

function titleCase(str) {
  return str.split(' ').map(function(val){ 
    return val.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + val.substr(1).toLowerCase();
  }).join(' ');
}

var toMatch = "john w. smith";
var result = toMatch.replace(/(\w)(\w*)/g, function (_, i, r) {
      return i.toUpperCase() + (r != null ? r : "");
    }
)

似乎有用… 用上面的测试，“快棕色的狐狸?/跳过/越过了……“C:/程序文件/某些供应商/他们的第二个应用程序/a file1.txt”。

如果你想要2Nd而不是2Nd，你可以更改为/([a-z])(\w*)/g。

第一种形式可以简化为:

function toTitleCase(toTransform) {
  return toTransform.replace(/\b([a-z])/g, function (_, initial) {
      return initial.toUpperCase();
  });
}

Greg Dean的解决方案原型方案:

String.prototype.capitalize = function() {
  return this.replace(/\w\S*/g, function(txt){return txt.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + txt.substr(1).toLowerCase();});
}
