Re: [PHP-DB] want to compare text input with blob field

2002-08-22 Thread Stuart McDonald

Funny,
I just had the same problem!

I converted the blob column to a text column and then the problem went away.

This page may be of use from the MySQL manual:
http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/Case_Sensitivity_Operators.html

But I couldn't get their solution to work, so I changed the format of the
column to TEXT and it works fine.

Cheers

stuart

[PHP-DB] want to compare text input with blob field

2002-08-22 Thread Smita Manohar

hii
im using php with mysql 3.23
in my script im accepting text input and want to compare it with  the field 
which is of the type blob.

trying with following query.

SELECT * from table where fieldname LIKE '% $textinupt %'

but it is giving case sensitive result bcos the field which im comparing 
with text input is blob.
what should i do to avoid case sensitive result??? is it required to convert 
input text also in boob format?? then how to do that??

thnx and regds,
smita.
