Code is taken from:
http://ejohn.org/blog/title-capitalization-in-javascript/
In order to get use the above, create a file and place the following code and save it. You can then run it locally to automatically show you the proper capitalization of the title. Just key in the title in the text box and click the submit button, it will then display the result above. Note that the script does not work in IE, it works in Chrome and Firefox.
