Howto Filter symbols like ëíñçíàéö etc.

with "filter", you mean remove them?

You could place all the letters you wanna remove in an array and then use str_ireplace() (if you use PHP 5) to delete them.
ex:

[color=blue]<?php
$string = 'bla bla bla ëíñçíàéö bla bla ñç...';

$chars = array('ë', 'í', 'ñ', 'ç', 'í', 'à', 'é', 'ö');
echo str_ireplace($chars, '', $string);
?>[/color]

[code=php:0]<?php

$string = 'bla bla bla ëíñçíàéö bla bla ñç...';

$change = array('ë', 'í', 'ñ', 'ç', 'í', 'à', 'é', 'ö');
$tothis = array('a', 'i', 'n', 'c', 'i', 'a', 'e', 'o');

echo str_replace($change, $tothis, $string);

?>[/code]

It does not work if $change contains non-ASCII chars like α - β - Ğ - ğ - İ - ı - Ş - ş


<?php

$string = 'bla bla bla ëíñçíàéö bla bla ñç...';

$change = array("α",  "β",  "Ğ", "ğ" );

$tothis = array('a', 'i', 'n', 'c', 'i', 'a', 'e', 'o');

echo str_replace($change, $tothis, $string);

?>
