Case handling in edit boxes

Is there a way to force the case of whatever the user types?

Some javascript text objects have properties like "properCase" (forces all first letters in a line to be upper case, for instance).

Thanks

It possible to create special excell which will do the same, or you can use onEditCell event for such purpose

mygrid.attachEvent("onEditCell", function(stage,id,index,new_val){
    if (stage==2 && index==INDEX)
       return (new_val||"").toString().toLowerCase();
    return true;
});


such code will convert any value entered in in cell inside column INDEX to lower case
