in $_REQUEST['startdateDay'], $_REQUEST['startdateMonth'] and
$_REQUEST['startdateYear'].

because you applied capitalize only to the end_year attribute and not
to html_select_date's output.

{html_select_date|capitalize prefix="startdate" start_year="2000" end_year="+1"}

would capitalize the whole ouput, but this also capitalizes the
html-tag and -attribute names, which is very likely not what you want.


IMHO you have these choices:

- live with capitalized tag-names and values, which may result in
funny side-effects.

- find a locale with capitalized month-names or build one.

- hack {html_select_date} to suit your need.
