Hi. I'm working on a script which edits a page, adds a section to it and then redirects to this page.
It would be nice if it went straight to the newly-created section. So I need to create a link with # in it.
The problem appears when the title of the section contains some diacritics. For example, link to "bażant królewski" looks like "Ba.C5.BCant_kr.C3.B3lewski".
How can I generate in JavaScript such a link which would be identical to the one generated by MediaWiki? Has somebody written such a function? Or at least, do you know where it is done in MediaWiki php code?
It is pretty simple as long as there is no wikitext or html in the title: convert it to urlencoded UTF-8 (encodeURIComponent does that), replace percent signs with dots, replace spaces with underscores.
I have tried encodeURIComponent before. Bażant królewski becomes Bażant_królewski. Diacritics are not converted. At least not under Firefox.
