Hi,
You can use the static slug() method of the Inflactor class to create
the slug of a string.
Read this part of the documentation:
http://book.cakephp.org/2.0/en/core-utility-libraries/inflector.html?highlight=slug#Inflector::slug
And you can use it like: Inflector::slug($word, $replacement = '_')
Inflector::slug("My string has to be a slug", '-'); would return my-
string-has-to-be-a-slug
bye
