Short answer is to see
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.eregi-replace.php. Usage examples can
be found right on php.net. See longer answer below.

I should have said use ereg_replace(). It matches text using regular
expressions (regular expressions allow for complex matching) in a
case-sensitive manner. Depending on the specifics of what you're attempting
it may be of use. You could use it to replace certain characters within a
specific part of the HTML source page (but ignore the same characters within
other parts of the page) with capital letters (like you described). If you
simply want to replace all matches within the page str_replace() is a better
choice. Regular expressions are a more difficult concept to master than a
lot of other concepts within PHP so you may want to look at some tutorials
or books on the subject.
