I've switched WP to another theme and that fixes the issue, I'd just like to know what part of the theme does the SP get it's text formatting from so I can change it in my site theme.

Thanks!

Well none directly. But any CSS that is defined by the WP theme to be global - i.e., not applied to specified classes or ids  is going to have some sort of effect.

On this case I would look for any rules in the theme CSS that apply globally to input or textarea fields.

OK, thanks, I will look. I'm not a code guy unfortunately. I use a theme generator. It does have some global settings in the Typography that are set to "All Caps." I've experimented with turning some of those off to no avail. They are mostly under "Headers" or "Headings." I'll keep looking.

Just out of curiosity, is there a specific WP file where all the typography info is kept?

Thanks again.

Normally in the syles.css file of the theme. If the theme is a 'child' theme then you would also need to look at the style.css file of the parent.

Ha! Thanks to you, I found it! :)

It was in the input text portion

input,select,textarea {
vertical-align:middle;
font-family:Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif;
font-style:normal;
font-weight:bold;
font-size:13px;
text-transform:uppercase;
}

I've changed the transform to "none" and viola!

Now I've got to find out where that option is in my theme generator.

Thanks again for your help,

And Howdy from Texas! ~ Phil
