Lowercase to Uppercase Converter Using JavaScript
Hi! At times, beginners always find it hard getting the application of the theory they learn in programming or a particular language.
In this article, we'll see another application of JavaScript. We'll see the use/application JavaScript objects and properties/methods to build a web app that converts lowercase to uppercase letters.
The application will get user input via a text box or text area and will output the result in the same text box.
Seems like magic right!!!
You may think applying the knowledge is the same as when you were getting lectures on it! But that's not true.
The application of every concept in programming needs extra tips and knowledge to be successful.
First of all, let's begin by revising the syntax of JavaScript string object methods...
JavaScript string methods are used to perform specific tasks on string objects or strings (some).
For example:
var x = hello.toUpperCase();
Assigns the text hello to variable x in uppercase.
Now, let's move to our project.
Open a text editor and type the code below.
Save the file with the name uppercase.html
NB: You can still use your own desired CSS style!
In the case of this project, we'll get the input in the text box/area using its element and then apply the JavaScript string object method to it.

Open the html file and test out your web application.
