title: Remove/normalize accents in Javascript/Jquery
body: <p>I'm trying to remove accents from a string in portuguese and I've found solutions like the one presented in <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/990904/javascript-remove-accents-diacritics-in-strings">Remove accents/diacritics in a string in JavaScript</a> but it seems a bit 'ugly'. Isn't any library in JS/Jquery that can make this work for you? In Java you have for instance the class Normalizer <a href="http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/text/Normalizer.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/text/Normalizer.html</a></p>
