The algorithm is as follows: * Each high ASCII character is replaced by its normal equivalent * The string is converted to lower case * Any HTML (including HTML entities) in the string is removed * Any characters which are not (Perl) words, spaces or hyphens, are removed * Runs of spaces are converted to the separator character
