Added urlify to try and create webbie auto-suggestions out of whatever unicode stuff gets thrown in as a name. Currently this will only work for latin/european/cyrillic/russian, but possible to extend to ideographic forms.

+# URLify for PHP
+
+A PHP port of [URLify.js](https://github.com/django/django/blob/master/django/contrib/admin/static/admin/js/urlify.js)
+from the Django project. Handles symbols from Latin languages, Greek, Turkish,
+Russian, Ukrainian, Czech, Polish, and Latvian. Symbols it cannot transliterate
+it will simply omit.

+## Usage:
+
+To generate slugs for URLs:
+
+```php
+<?php
+
+echo URLify::filter (' J\'étudie le français ');
+// "jetudie-le-francais"
+
+echo URLify::filter ('Lo siento, no hablo español.');
+// "lo-siento-no-hablo-espanol"
+
+?>
+```
+
+To simply transliterate characters:
+
+```php
+<?php
+
+echo URLify::downcode ('J\'étudie le français');
+// "J'etudie le francais"
+
+echo URLify::downcode ('Lo siento, no hablo español.');
+// "Lo siento, no hablo espanol."
+
+/* Or use transliterate() alias: */
+
+echo URLify::transliterate ('Lo siento, no hablo español.');
+// "Lo siento, no hablo espanol."
+
+?>
+```
+
+To extend the character list:
+
+```php
+<?php
+
+URLify::add_chars (array (
+	'¿' => '?', '®' => '(r)', '¼' => '1/4',
+	'¼' => '1/2', '¾' => '3/4', '¶' => 'P'
+));
+
+echo URLify::downcode ('¿ ® ¼ ¼ ¾ ¶');
+// "? (r) 1/2 1/2 3/4 P"
+
+?>
+```
+
+To extend the list of words to remove:
+
+```php
+<?php
+
+URLify::remove_words (array ('remove', 'these', 'too'));
+
+?>
+```
