Currently, the Form API Validation module does not provide a built-in filter to automatically apply the `ucfirst` function to input values. This can lead to inconsistencies in user input where the first character of a string is not capitalized, resulting in unformatted or less professional data being stored.
Adding a filter for ucfirst would allow developers to automatically capitalize the first letter of input values, ensuring cleaner and more consistent data formatting.
Introduce a new filter option for Form API Validation to apply the `ucfirst` function to input values. This filter will:
Automatically capitalize the first letter of user input when applied.
Be configurable at the form element level, similar to existing filters like trim.
Example usage in a form definition:
$form['example_textfield'] = [
'#type' => 'textfield',
'#title' => t('Example Field'),
'#filters' => [
'ucfirst' => [],
],
];
