Glen Mazza commented on ROL-1420:
---------------------------------
I don't see much use in this, because the user can already enter the precise
URL he wants (without the accent marks in this case), then hit "save draft" to
create the permanent URL, then change the blog title to whatever he or she
wants (with accent marks or whatever). This will need to be done anyway
because the blog title is rarely what you want the URL to be, the blog title is
for easy readability while the URL needs to be more terse (5 word limit) and
include just the most important words for SEO.

> The user should have the option to convert all accented characters of a post
> title with equivalent ascii letters to generate the anchor for that post. It
> is easer to type urls.
> My sugestion is to use the sun.text.Normalize library and change the funcion
> createAnchorBase as:
> public String createAnchorBase() {
>
> // Use title (minus non-alphanumeric characters)
> String base = null;
> if (!StringUtils.isEmpty(getTitle())) {
> base = Utilities.replaceNonAlphanumeric(getTitle(), ' ').trim();
>
> }
> // If we still have no base, then try text (minus non-alphanumerics)
> if (StringUtils.isEmpty(base) && !StringUtils.isEmpty(getText())) {
> base = Utilities.replaceNonAlphanumeric(getText(), ' ').trim();
> }
>
> if (!StringUtils.isEmpty(base)) {
>
> // Use only the first 4 words
> StringTokenizer toker = new StringTokenizer(base);
> String tmp = null;
> int count = 0;
> while (toker.hasMoreTokens() && count < 5) {
> String s = toker.nextToken();
> s = s.toLowerCase();
> tmp = (tmp == null) ? s : tmp + "_" + s;
> count++;
> }
> String temp = Normalizer.normalize(tmp, Normalizer.DECOMP, 0);
> base = temp.replaceAll("[^\\p{ASCII}]","");
> }
> // No title or text, so instead we will use the items date
> // in YYYYMMDD format as the base anchor
> else {
> base = DateUtil.format8chars(getPubTime());
> }
>
> return base;
> }
> Should only to add logic to do the
> String temp = Normalizer.normalize(tmp, Normalizer.DECOMP, 0);
> base = temp.replaceAll("[^\\p{ASCII}]","");
> part when the blog settings Normalize is true.
