Try this (or rather, one of these):
text-transform: lowercase; /* force text to lowercase */
text-transform: uppercase; /* force text to uppercase */
text-transform: capitalize; /* force text to proper case */
}
or
div.caps {text-transform: capitalize;}
Code:
strong { text-transform: lowercase; /* force text to lowercase */
text-transform: uppercase; /* force text to uppercase */
text-transform: capitalize; /* force text to proper case */
}
or
Code:
div.uppercase {text-transform: uppercase;} div.caps {text-transform: capitalize;}

Hi,
Well, personally I prefer "Username", over "username" .. and if you have multiple words, i.e "User_Password" instead of "user_password"
To be honest though, there is no "standard" as such. Some people even do it as USERNAME or USER_PASSWORD (not my cup of tea though =))

See: http://en.wikipedia.org/...on_%28programming%29
You usually don't put delimiters between words when you do camel case (eg. UserPassword).
