I need to make a customized option with a special character to point to a filename which cannot be have that special character. This is for the Country Flag hack. I asked the question a few months ago, but the coder has not logged in since:

In the User Profile Fields, the custom Profile Field "Country" has a list of options which are the country names. When a "country name" is chosen by a user from the dropdown menu in the user's Edit Options, this links to a "filename" in a directory which is a gif image with the country flag.
This is alright except with "country names" which have a special character, like Espa?a, because the "filename" cannot have that special character and it doesn't recognize it.
How can I go around this? I.e. make option "Espa?a" link to file "Espana.gif".
Surely there must be a way to do this?
