Subject: [PHP] ASCII/UNICODE Character Translation Comparison in Strings


Hello, I was wondering if there are any native PHP functions that will
acomplish what I have set out to do here:

I have an issue where I would need to compare international characters, for
instance i would want "björk" to match "bjork", i would want ô,ö, and ò to
match o; ñ, Ñ to match n. etc...

I could just create a function that would do this, and I already have ideas
about how to go about this, but before i start coding, i want to make sure
there isn't something that PHP does already that could replace what i'm
trying to do here.

Thanks

(yes, i googled already) ;-)

-Chris
