removeAccents function proposition

Hello all.
I use websvn to publish the sources of my project.

I use a LAMP server, and php error reporting is configured
with E_NOTICES and
E_STRICT.

function removeAccents($string)
{
   return strtr($string,
               
"ÀÁÂÃÄÅàáâãäåÒÓÔÕÖØòóôõöøÈÉÊËèéêëÇçÌÍÎÏìíîïÙÚÛÜùúûüÿÑñ&
quot;,
               
"AAAAAAaaaaaaOOOOOOooooooEEEEeeeeCcIIIIiiiiUUUUuuuuyNn&
quot;);
}

May be this function ca be replaced with something like that
:
--------

function removeAccents($string)
{
  $string = htmlentities($fileName, ENT_QUOTES,
'ISO-8859-1')) ; // any charset you want here...

  $string =
preg_replace('/&([a-z])(acute|uml|circ|grave|ring|cedil|
slash|tilde|caron);/','$1',$string) ;
  $string =
preg_replace('/&([A-Z])(acute|uml|circ|grave|ring|cedil|
slash|tilde|caron);/','$1',$string) ;

  /* etc... */

  return $string ;
}
--------
Can be optimized with additional tests, of course...
A ful example is available here :
http://www.bildo-project.org/websv
n/filedetails.php?path=%2Ftrunk%2Fdiskio.php
And the function is *CleanFileName*

Thanks,
Andre Rodier

I do that too.  Did you get a notice or something?

Well, that actually looks like a good idea.  At first I was
wondering 
why you were using a regex to do something that could be
done in a 
look-up table or something like that (not sure on the exact
name for 
it), but then I saw the [A-Z] part.

I'm not entirely sure on the point of the removeAccents()
function, 
however.
