Why does the text widget capitalize all letters?

  I’m using Silver is the New Black theme. I made a text widget of links to favorite blogs posts. Even though I’m using title case in the HTML, the text appears live as all caps. Is this a requirement of the theme, or am I doing something wrong? I’ve tried using <h4> tags, and also first editing the text in the main text editor before pasting into the widget. But nothing works.

  Thanks for any insight.

  Your theme automatically caps all letters.

  Try this in a text editor:

  <span style="text-transform:capitalize;">Your text here.</span>

  @Re beemeister’s suggestion: That code will give you capitals for the first letter of each word. For normal text, use “none” instead of “capitalize”.
