How to remove accents in PHP ?
| Back to programming. thibault (2009-04-04)  |
Here is a nice function that can help you to remove every accent in a text. It can be useful to build a url that works on a server running an old PHP version or to convert a text from UTF-8 to ISO-8859-1 format.
function replace_accents($string)
{
return str_replace( array('à','á','â','ã','ä', 'ç', 'è','é','ê','ë', 'ì','í','î','ï', 'ñ', 'ò','ó','ô','õ','ö', 'ù','ú','û','ü', 'ý','ÿ', 'À','Á','Â','Ã','Ä', 'Ç', 'È','É','Ê','Ë', 'Ì','Í','Î','Ï', 'Ñ', 'Ò','Ó','Ô','Õ','Ö', 'Ù','Ú','Û','Ü', 'Ý'), array('a','a','a','a','a', 'c', 'e','e','e','e', 'i','i','i','i', 'n', 'o','o','o','o','o', 'u','u','u','u', 'y','y', 'A','A','A','A','A', 'C', 'E','E','E','E', 'I','I','I','I', 'N', 'O','O','O','O','O', 'U','U','U','U', 'Y'), $string);
}
By the way, as UTF-8 should be the most used format in the future, it is strongly recommanded to code all your pages in this format.

Let iconv handle it
<?php
// This covers all unicode characters
$text = iconv('UTF-8', 'US-ASCII//TRANSLIT', $text);
?>
