search is not case insensitive

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

 



Hi
Using a php search form produces a nil return on any information that is
capitalised within a mysql database; retrieval is fine for non-capitalised
data. Could someone tweak this please? The relevant code I think is as
follows:

// Description is a BLOB in MySQL... we need to UPPER the blob
//values to make the search case-insensitive.

	$query = "SELECT C.*, A.surname, A.name, A.surname_prefix, A.id AS user
FROM pbcs_user A, pbcs_join_table_user_app B, pbcs_appointment C	".

				"WHERE A.id = B.user_id AND B.appointment_id = C.id	".

				"AND LOWER(C.description) LIKE '%".strtolower($search_for)."%' AND
C.start_time > $start_time AND C.start_time < $end_time ORDER BY
C.start_time";
	$result = pbcs_db_query($query);

Thanks
