True or not: We should always use proper capitalization and never put whole sentences

True or not: We should always use proper capitalization and never put whole sentences in all-uppercase. If we must do so, we should use CSS for this task.”

Should we use the CSS property text-transform for other cases if we need them?

(Note that I’m not talking about HTML tags, I’m talking about text content)

    I’m not talking about HTML TAG i’m talking about text content? I head Screen reader spell letter by letter if we use UPPERCASE.

    my question was "Should we always use lowercase text in web page’s content?" and use css text-transform for other cases if we need.

    Just use natural text, as you did in your SO question. Screen readers will generally read ALL UPPERCASE as individual letters, as such text is generally an acronym (it’ll likely vary from reader to reader – some handle things more intelligently than others, and may be able to figure out that a whole sentence isn’t likely to be an acronym).

    You don’t have to lowercase every letter, though – a screen reader shouldn’t have any problem with "This Is A Sentence."

    UPPERCASE text that isn’t an acronym should be done with CSS’s text-transform: uppercase;.
