How to Convert Non-English Characters to English Using JavaScript
- by Adam Right
I have a c# function which converts all non-english characters to proper characters for a given text. like as follows
public static string convertString(string phrase)
{
int maxLength = 100;
string str = phrase.ToLower();
int i = str.IndexOfAny( new char[] { 's','ç','ö','g','ü','i'});
//if any non-english charr exists,replace it with proper char
if (i > -1)
{
StringBuilder outPut = new StringBuilder(str);
outPut.Replace('ö', 'o');
outPut.Replace('ç', 'c');
outPut.Replace('s', 's');
outPut.Replace('i', 'i');
outPut.Replace('g', 'g');
outPut.Replace('ü', 'u');
str = outPut.ToString();
}
// if there are other invalid chars, convert them into blank spaces
str = Regex.Replace(str, @"[^a-z0-9\s-]", "");
// convert multiple spaces and hyphens into one space
str = Regex.Replace(str, @"[\s-]+", " ").Trim();
// cut and trim string
str = str.Substring(0, str.Length <= maxLength ? str.Length : maxLength).Trim();
// add hyphens
str = Regex.Replace(str, @"\s", "-");
return str;
}
but i should use same function on client side with javascript.
is it possible to convert above function to js ?
waiting all kinds of suggestion.
thanks in advance..
