hello group,

I cannot figure out how to use iconv to "normalize" characters
specific to some language. I need it in file upload where I take a
file from local disc and then save to server and use in web pages, for
example, as img source.

What should be the second parameter of the function?

Say,
iconv('ISO-8859-1', 'ASCII//TRANSLIT', $str);
works but it gives too much transformed result.

I would like just replace specific chars, like "a acute", "a with
macron", "a umlaut", with a character without accent.


Andra.
