<para>
<function>mb_convert_case</function> returns case folded version of
<parameter>string</parameter> converted in the way specified by
<parameter>mode</parameter>.
</para>
<para>
<parameter>mode</parameter> can be one of MB_CASE_UPPER, MB_CASE_LOWER
or MB_CASE_TITLE.
</para>
<para>
<parameter>encoding</parameter> specifies the encoding of
<parameter>str</parameter>; if omitted, the internal character encoding
value will be used.
</para>
<para>
The return value is str with the appropriate case folding applied.
</para>
<para>
By contrast to the standard case folding functions such as
<function>strtolower</function> and <function>strtoupper</function>,
case folding is performed on the basis of the Unicode character
properties. Thus the behaviour of this function is not affected
by locale settings and it can convert any characters that have
'alphabetic' property, such as A-umlaut (&Auml;).
</para>
<para>
For more information about the Unicode properties, please see <ulink
url="&url.unicode.reports;">&url.unicode.reports;</ulink>.
