eg.
$b = $_POST['whatever_variables_you_have'];
$match = array("ö","ç","ä");
$replace = array("o","c","a");
$z = str_replace($match,$replace,$b);
Might not be exactly what you want but hope it helps. Jas

I've hit my limit on regular expressions.
I need to check a string to see if it contains legal characters...
A thru Z [a-z], SPACE, PERIOD, DASH/HYPHEN, APOSTROPHE [\' -,\.]
OK, this is not a problem.
My problem comes in with extended characters, as these examples... González Vänligen före innehĺlla
I'm trying to build a RegExp that will see if the string is a proper name format or not.
Names only have A thru Z, extended characters for other languages (than English), SPACE, PERIOD, DASH/HYPHEN, APOSTROPHE Dr. Roger O'Malley Mrs. Sara Harris-Henderson
I have a RegExp to do English letters, but not the extended set... Manuel González Försök Bokstäver Contém Espaço-Válido
(Ok, these are not really names, but you get the idea)
Any ideas on this?
All I want to know is if a given string contains only these types of characters. anything else would give me a FALSE.
Thanks Walter
