Example 05-04 Using the string capitalization functions
<?php
// Capitalize a string
function capitalize( $str )
{
// First, convert all characters to lower case
$str = strtolower($str);
// Second, convert the first character to upper case
$str{0} = strtoupper($str{0});
echo $str;
}
capitalize("hEllo WoRld!" );
?>

Please explain the curley braces meaning for $str{0}.
I thought that to access each letter of $str as an array that
$str[0] was appropriate.By the way I really like the book. Thanks, Ed
