"No, the aim, I believe, is WORD --> word --> Word"

Yes, that is exactly what I'm after. As Jack said, the text come from an
external source that I don't have control of it. They can come as TEXT,
text, Text, TeXt so on, and I wanted to know if it can be converted to
'Text' (capitalized) using just CSS. Unfortunately, it seems that we can't
do that with CSS, yet. I might have to do it with javascript.

Thanks all.
