| For 2023 (and 2024 ...) - we are now fully retired from IT training. We have made many, many friends over 25 years of teaching about Python, Tcl, Perl, PHP, Lua, Java, C and C++ - and MySQL, Linux and Solaris/SunOS too. Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own risk. Lisa and I (Graham) now live in what was our training centre in Melksham - happy to meet with former delegates here - but do check ahead before coming round. We are far from inactive - rather, enjoying the times that we are retired but still healthy enough in mind and body to be active! I am also active in many other area and still look after a lot of web sites - you can find an index ((here)) |
MySQL as Case Sensitive
Posted by keith (keith), 9 December 2004
Hi all... especially Graham 
(Graham :- Courses in September on MySQL and PHP)
I am confused and need help.
How do I make MySQL case sensitive when I query it in PHP?
Currently if I say .....WHERE abcd='A'
It finds both a and A entries.

In MySQL, queries are case sensitive if a field is defined as being a binary field, and are case insensitive on non-binary fields. Sounds like you may need to go back and change your field definitions!(If you really want to store binary data, bu the way, you use a blob and not a binary type.)
