Underscores in the string will result in false, so you have to remove them first.

Eksempler
Eksempel #1 A ctype_upper() example (using the default locale)
<?php
$strings = array('AKLWC139', 'LMNSDO', 'akwSKWsm');
foreach ($strings as $testcase) {
if (ctype_upper($testcase)) {
echo "The string $testcase consists of all uppercase letters.\n";
} else {
echo "The string $testcase does not consist of all uppercase letters.\n";
}
}
?>

The string AKLWC139 does not consist of all uppercase letters. The string LMNSDO consists of all uppercase letters. The string akwSKWsm does not consist of all uppercase letters.
Noter
Note:
If an integer between -128 and 255 inclusive is provided, it is interpreted as the ASCII value of a single character (negative values have 256 added in order to allow characters in the Extended ASCII range). Any other integer is interpreted as a string containing the decimal digits of the integer.
