Using url_title() with Spanish or other strange characters
If you are running your site in Spanish and using url_title to create Permalinks in CodeIgniter then likely you had run in character issues while creating your links.
Martin posted a solution in CodeIgniter’s forum with a workaround for this issue. He proposed
$trans = array(
$search => $replace,
"á" => 'a',
"é" => 'e',
"í" => 'i',
"ó" => 'o',
"ú" => 'u',
"à" => 'a',
"è" => 'e',
"ì" => 'i',
"ò" => 'o',
"ù" => 'u',
"ñ" => 'n',
"ä" => 'a',
"ë" => 'e',
"ï" => 'i',
"ö" => 'o',
"ü" => 'u',
"\s+" => $replace,
"[^a-z0-9".$replace."]" => '',
$replace."+" => $replace,
$replace."$" => '',
"^".$replace => ''
);
My two cents here are the following. You can try to override the URL Helper by extending it in MY_url_helper.php under application/helpers directory.

Hi, I was thinking that there is a problem when there are upper cases, becouse the strtolower doesn’t work with special words like the “Ñ”.
$trans = array(
$search => $replace,
“á” => ‘a’,
“é” => ‘e’,
“í” => ‘i’,
“ó” => ‘o’,
“ú” => ‘u’,
“à” => ‘a’,
“è” => ‘e’,
“ì” => ‘i’,
“ò” => ‘o’,
“ù” => ‘u’,
“ñ” => ‘n’,
“ä” => ‘a’,
“ë” => ‘e’,
“ï” => ‘i’,
“ö” => ‘o’,
“ü” => ‘u’,
“Ñ” => ‘N’,
“Á” => ‘A’,
“É” => ‘E’,
“Í” => ‘I’,
“Ó” => ‘O’,
“Ú” => ‘U’,
“À” => ‘A’,
“È” => ‘E’,
“Ì” => ‘I’,
“Ò” => ‘O’,
“Ù” => ‘U’,
“Ä” => ‘A’,
“Ë” => ‘E’,
“Ï” => ‘I’,
“Ö” => ‘O’,
“Ü” => ‘U’,
“Ç” => ‘C’,
“ç” => ‘c’,
“\s+” => $replace,
“[^a-z0-9".$replace."]” => ”,
$replace.”+” => $replace,
$replace.”$” => ”,
“^”.$replace => ”
);
