Hi everyone, im new here, so please correct me if i created or formated topic incorrectly. I found a problem. I have a simple query for my needs: $stmt = $dbh->prepare("SELECT concat(first_name,' ',last_name) as full_name,t.* FROM `specialists` `t` HAVING full_name like '%john%'"); $stmt->execute(); while($row = $stmt->fetch()) { echo '<pre>'; var_dump($row); echo '</pre>'; } It works fine, until i add a param to my query: $stmt = $dbh->prepare("SELECT concat(first_name,' ',last_name) as full_name,t.* FROM `specialists` `t` HAVING full_name like '%:query%'"); $stmt->execute(); $query = 'londo'; $stmt->bindParam(':query',$query); while($row = $stmt->fetch()) { echo '<pre>'; var_dump($row); echo '</pre>'; } Now there is nothing in fetch(). Is it a bug ? Thanks. -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
