Huge problem with upper/lower and foreign chars

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Ciao again!

I just ran into a huge problem with the functions upper and lower…

It turns out, that when converting the case of foreign characters, like åäö, they stay as they were from the beginning…

Example:

SQL = select 'test åÄöØ', upper('test åÄöØ'), lower('test åÄöØ')

Result:

?column?    upper                  lower
test åÄöØ    TEST åÄöØ        test åÄöØ

This makes searches impossible for me, since postgres is case sensitive…

I would really really appreciate some input on this matter…

Best regards,
