hello,
i have this table in UTF8 (collation is utf8_bin in case it matters).
I need to search in it for strings using LIKE '%$searchstring%' .
Right now you have to use the exact case in order for the results to show up. Is there a way to make it case insensitive ?
Thank you
UPDATE
sorry, found the answer.

I'm trying to scrape META keywords and description tags from arbitrary websites. I obviusly have no control over said website, so have to take what I'm given. They have a variety of casings for the tag and attributes, which means I need to work case-insensitively. I can't believe that the lxml authors are as stubborn as to insist on full...
Given that (at least on NTFS) the filesystem on Windows is case insensitive, I would like to compare String fileA to String fileB as such:
fileA.Equals(fileB, StringComparison.CurrentCultureIgnoreCase)
The question then becomes which culture I should use, does the default current (ui?) culture suffice? I can't seem to find any BCL met...
I'm trying to evaluate different strategies for case insensitive UTF-8 string comparison.
I've read some material from the Unicode consortium, experimented with ICU and tried to come up with various quality-of-implementation alternatives.

I have written the following code to do case insensitive replace in C#:
Regex.Replace(textBoxText,
Regex.Escape(findText),
replaceText,
RegexOptions.IgnoreCase);
Just wanted to check, whether this is the right approach, or is there a better approach and whether I'm overlooking something that I should better be aware of....
I need is_dir() to don't care about if the folder or the argument is upper or lower case, or a mix of upper and lower.
So if the foldername is "My Folder" and I run is_dir("mY FoLdEr") the result should be true.

I'm developing an app in Rails on OS X using PostgreSQL 8.4. I need to setup the database for the app so that standard text queries are case-insensitive. For example:
SELECT * FROM documents WHERE title = 'incredible document'
should return the same result as:
SELECT * FROM documents WHERE title = 'Incredible Document'

Hi all, I found in this article, that since ORACLE 10g, there is a way to make a particular connection-session compare strings case-insensitive, without needing any crazy SQL functions, using an ALTER SESSION.
Does anyone know if, in 11g, there might be a way to make the database to always operate in this mode by default for all new co...

Hi all,
I'm looking for a MySQL collation for UTF8 which is case insensitive and distinguishes between "a" and "ä" (or more generally, between umlauted / accented characters and their "pure" form). utf8_general_ci does the former, utf8_bin the latter, bot none does both. If there is no such collation, what can I do to get as close as po...
How can I create a copy of a string field in case insensitive form? I want to use the typical "string" type and a case insensitive type. The types are defined like so:

I like mysqlimport, its fast and relatively easy to use (much faster then say, PHP or Python front-ends for importing > 20GB data files). However I'd like to do the following. I have a data file that looks like:

CaT DOG 1
with the fields as varchar, varchar, int
And I would like the final result to be stored as ['...
Hi,
I'm using the The excellent UNIX 'comm' command line utility in an application which I developed on a BSD platform (OSX). When I deployed to my Linux production server I found out that sadly, Ubuntu Linux's 'comm' utility does not take the -i flag to indicate that the lines should be compared case-insensitive. Apparently the POSIX s...
How do I match a case insensitive regex and delete it at the same time
I read that to get case insensitive matches, use the flag "i"
sed -e "/pattern/replace/i" filepath
and to delete use d
sed -e "/pattern/d" filepath
I've also read that I could combine multiple flags like 2iw
I'd like to know if sed could combine both i and d
I've t...
The classic way to query an SQL database case-insensitively from Java is as follows:
String name = ...; // get the user's input (case is unknown)
String sql = "select * from Person where lower(name) = ?";
Object jdbcBindVariable = name.toLowerCase();
// ... using JDBC, bind that variable and run the SQL query
The problem is that lowe...
