PhpTransliteration::transliterate

public PhpTransliteration::transliterate($string, $langcode = 'en', $unknown_character = '?', $max_length = NULL)

Transliterates text from Unicode to US-ASCII.

Parameters

string $string: The string to transliterate.

string $langcode: (optional) The language code of the language the string is in. Defaults to 'en' if not provided. Warning: this can be unfiltered user input.

string $unknown_character: (optional) The character to substitute for characters in $string without transliterated equivalents. Defaults to '?'.

int $max_length: (optional) If provided, return at most this many characters, ensuring that the transliteration does not split in the middle of an input character's transliteration.

Return value

string $string with non-US-ASCII characters transliterated to US-ASCII characters, and unknown characters replaced with $unknown_character.
