To do it properly, you'd need a text parser, but you can only find those on Endor.

Be sure to check for spelling and other grammar errors and fix them, too.

There's only so much hand-holding you can do.

Your responses show you have no experience in web design. It is not difficult to limit the CSS code i provided to Youtube thumbnails. Style sheets do not modify the original text, only how they are presented in the browser. Video titles are not links, so the style sheet would not apply to video titles, therefore the browser would render the video title in all the glory that the user wanted for the video title, including capitalized sentences. To say anything more than this is required to solve obnoxious titles shows lack of understanding of web design and web development.

If you wanted capitalized letters at the beginning of sentences, text-transform would not be your best bet.

A scripted parser is what you would need to guarantee that video titles looked neato, but take longer to write. Hence Youtube doesn't format the titles.
