Filename: Normalise.php Original Author(s): Khaled Al-Sham'aa <khaled@ar-php.org> Purpose: Text normalisation through various stages. Also: unshaping. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This class provides various functions to manipulate arabic text and normalise it by applying filters, for example, to strip tatweel and tashkeel, to normalise hamza and lamalephs, and to unshape a joined Arabic text back into its normalised form. There is also a function to reverse a utf8 string. The functions are helpful for searching, indexing and similar functions. Note that this class can only deal with UTF8 strings. You can use functions from the other classes to convert between encodings if necessary. Example: include('./I18N/Arabic.php'); $str = "Arabic text with tatweel, tashkeel..."; echo "<p><u><i>Before:</i></u><br />$str<br /><br />"; $text = $obj->stripTatweel($str); echo "<u><i>After:</i></u><br />$text<br /><br />";
