what about a bunch of str_replace() things

PHP Code:


			
<?

function goodName($filename)

{

  $filename=str_replace(" ","_",$filename);



  // caution, i don't know regex that well so this is probably wrong.

  // but use a match that matches only things that are NOT

  // alphanumeric chars & underscore

  // and replace them with "" nothing.

  $filename=preg_replace("[^A-Za-z0-9_]","",$filename);



  return $filename;

}

?>
