URL Slugs in PHP (with UTF-8 and Transliteration Support)
<?php
/**
* Create a web friendly URL slug from a string.

* Although supported, transliteration is discouraged because
* 1) most web browsers support UTF-8 characters in URLs
* 2) transliteration causes a loss of information

Quick doesn't have to mean dirty: Also applies to PHP!

Quick doesn't have to mean dirty: Also applies to PHP!

This is just a quick response to http://me.veekun.com/blog/2012/07/28/quick-doesnt-mean-dirty/. I won't bother to write a proper blog post for this, so a Gist will have to do ;)

When I read that article, one thing really striked me: If you want to quickly create a web app in PHP, you do exactly the same. I mean, exactly.

I never used the Silex microframework before, so I took this as a chance to see how it works. I'll just do the same as eevee did, only with a bit less commentary (this is a Gist after all!)

I hope that this will show you that PHP and Python are really similar to work with. Also this should show that just because you're using PHP, doesn't mean that you write dirty code. The similarity in the process and code is really incredible :)
