toLowerCase() bookmarklet
I was reading an amazon review and unfortunatelly the person has posted in all uppercase. I tried to read but after a few lines I got bored, all uppercase text is harder to read, not to mention it is considered shouting on the web. So I thought "what if I had a button or something… to make this thing readable…"
I thought there must be a bookmarklet somewhere for such text transformation. A quick google search didn't reveal any useful result, so I wrote it myself. This is a bookmarklet to transform any selected text on a web page to lower case. It works in Firefox and IE (Windows) and probably other browsers. It's inspired (read heavily borrowed) from the great SquareFree bookmarklets. So here it goes:
p.s. I just now thought that I could've pasted the text into any even just a bit advanced text editor (MS Word, TextPad) and used the editor's built in functionality. But no… we, the Firefox users, are already so used to have a browser extensions of some sort for everything we need (or don't)

Greetings Stoyan
From your comment about you tolowecase() bookmarklet…
">p.s. I just now thought that I could've pasted the text into any even just a bit advanced text editor"
… it would be really useful if it could take text from the clipboard, convert it and put it back on the clipboard.
I've included the code from a similar bookmarklet that I saved a long time ago that does this in case you get ambitious. Unfortunately the code only works in IE, not FireFox that I always have open.
javascript:q=(document.frames.length?'':document.selection.createRange().text);for(i=0;i

I've been using the following two to convert the whole page to uppercase and lowercase:
uppercase: javascript:(function(){ var i,t,D=document;for(i=0;t=D.getElementsByTagName('textarea')[i];++i)t.value=t.value.toUpperCase(); var newSS,styles='*{text-transform:uppercase}input,textarea{text-transform:none}';if(D.createStyleSheet){D.createStyleSheet("javascript:'"+styles+"'");}else{newSS=D.createElement('link');newSS.rel='stylesheet';newSS.href='data:text/css,'+escape(styles);D.documentElement.childNodes[0].appendChild(newSS);}})()
lowercase: javascript:(function(){var i,t,D=document; for(i=0;t=D.getElementsByTagName('textarea')[i];++i)t.value=t.value.toLowerCase(); var newSS,styles='*{text-transform:lowercase}input,textarea{text-transform:none}';if(D.createStyleSheet){D.createStyleSheet("javascript:'"+styles+"'");}else{newSS=D.createElement('link');newSS.rel='stylesheet';newSS.href='data:text/css,'+escape(styles);D.documentElement.childNodes[0].appendChild(newSS);}})()
I've tested both of them on Opera, FF, and IE and they seem to work properly. By the way, there are plenty more of these bookmarklets at:
