Bażant królewski becomes > Bażant_królewski. Diacritics are not converted. At least not under Firefox. For basic examples you could use this: var txt = 'Zażółć'; txt = encodeURIComponent(encodeURI(txt).replace(/%/g, '.')).replace(/%/g, '.');
Not sure if encodeURI was in old IE (if you care ;-)), but it works with new browsers. Note that this will not work if the section contains mark up code. But as I understood you are not looking for something bulletproof.
