Hi Wretha,
Here's some ideas:
<?php
$title = "Hello <123> #*&%$£! to, the, it, and, or, with, too, also, a, if,
Wretha";
// all lowercase
$filename=strtolower($title);
// uncomment next 2 lines to see what it does
// $remove = array('to','the','it','and','or','with','too','also','an','if');
// $filename=str_replace($remove,"",$filename);
// accept only a to z + spcs
$filename=preg_replace("/[^a-z ]/","",$filename);
// 1 or more spcs to underscore
$filename=preg_replace("/[ ]+/ ","_",$filename);
// cut filename to length
$filename=substr($filename,0,20);
// trim and add file extension
$filename=trim($filename).".html";
echo $filename;
?>
To get rid of small words, I'd probably look for words <= 3 chars and delete
them.
Maybe someone has a better solution?
Bob E.
