To convert a string to lower case in JavaScript we use the following steps:

var sometext=”This is some text.”;
var casechanged=sometext.toLowerCase();

Now the variable casechanged contains “this is some text.”. For upper case in JavaScript:

var sometext=”This is some text.”;
var casechanged=sometext.toUpperCase();

Now the variable casechanged contains “THIS IS SOME TEXT.”.
