Why rule out PCRE, which is probably the best weapon for the job?

$string = ltrim(preg_replace('([A-Z])', ' \\1', $string));

You can wrap that in a function or even use create_function for
something that simple, in your array_walk.


I wasn't tuling it out, I meant that _my_ regex wasn't getting me very
