Hello.
We have book titles as a column in our database, which I would like to
use in our URLS for SEO purposes. Given that these are titles, they
include characters other than alphabets and numbers (e.g. punctuation,
blanks, foreign characters in some cases).
What's the easiest way to do this? Here is some more information:
Original string:
On One Flower: Butterflies, Ticks and a Few More Icks
What I would like to see:
on-one-flower-butterflies-ticks-and-a-few-more-icks
I'm currently doing something like this; is there a better way?
title.squeeze.downcase.tr("(),? !':.[]", "-").gsub('--', '-')
Thanks in advance.
