Vogelsinger suggested: >$chars_in = array('Á',''á','É','é'); // you get it >$chars_out = array('A','a','E','e'); // this too >preg_replace($chars_in, $chars_out, $string_to_parse); I initially got a 'no ending delimiter' error but after adding /'s to the $chars_in it was just what the doctor ordered. I'm actually a little surprised that there isn't a built-in function, say, strip_accent(). I'd assume a lot of people would need this at some time or another. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
