I think you mean something like this:
function stripAccents($string) {
$returnString = strtr($string,
'àáâãäçèéêëìíîïñòóôõöšùúûüýÀÁÂÃÄÇÈÉÊËÌÍÎÏÑÒÓÔÕÖŠÙÚÛÜÝ',
'aaaaaceeeeiiiinooooosuuuuyAAAAACEEEEIIIINOOOOOSUUUUY');
$returnString =
str_replace('æ','ae',str_replace('Æ','AE',$returnString));
$returnString =
str_replace('ø','oe',str_replace('Ø','OE',$returnString));
$returnString = str_replace('ß','ss',$returnString);
return $returnString;
}
This function is part using code once posted on this list, part my own
creation.
