links problem

1. Load the URL helper:

Code:

$this->load->helper('url');

2. Use function

Code:

url_title()

to remove/replace all unwanted characters from strings (also replaces spaces with dashes).

I haven't tested this with "ą", but it replaces characters like ë and é with a regular "e"

EDIT: sorry, doesn't work. Just tested. The function merely removes "ą". You will probably have to write your own preg_replace function.
