Why do people think URLs are case-insensitive when that is demonstrably false.?
Q. Come on people. Don't tell me URLs are case-insensitive. You're wrong. Emails are case-insensitive, domain names are case-insensitive. URLs are *Definitely* case sensitive.

Making Oracle case insensitive?
Q. How can oracle be configured to query on its data case insensitive? I can think of alternative solutions like forcing the comparison in upper case. However I have hundred of queries on my web application and it is not logical to do this on all queries. Also if modify all the queries to to convert the data to upper case for comparision, it will stop using the indexes. I just read another article on how to make oracle indexes handle case insensitivity. But all this workaround for hundreds of queries is not plausible. I read if you run the following statments, it will make the oracle data case insensitive SQL> alter session set NLS_COMP=ANSI; SQL> alter session set NLS_SORT=BINARY_CI; However this is only for a session. I will need it across… [cont.]
Asked by Abraham Alex - Fri Aug 28 01:29:53 2009 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Hi, You can use "alter system set ..." but you should not do that. Instead modify your searches. Oracle provides LIKE and REGEXP_LIKE comparation. Also note that indexes are not used if you use regexp_like (it affects only the columns queried - the index in overall still might be used). If you want to paint an orange into blue color then there is no need to paint all the oranges on the world - and that is what you would do by "alter system". Don't search for global-oracle-option-to-c hange-generic-functionali ty - instead change your code.

Case insensitive queries on Microsoft Access 2007?
Q. At my job, we use Access tables to search for clients' information. However, whoever is maintaining these tables isn't very consistent with the cases. Some of our clients' information is in all caps and some have proper casing where their names show up with the first letter of their first and last name are capitalized, e.g. John Smith. It makes searches very annoying. I know I could use the asterisk ( * ) wildcard operator for some things, or enter multiple things to search for (e.g. john, JOHN, John), but I was wondering if there was some way to do case insensitive queries? Thanks.

A. What exactly do you mean by "case sensitive"? Address bar, forms, what? I want to point out that the URL of some websites are case sensitive and others aren't. I think it depends on if a Windows or Linux server is being used to host the website, not what browser is used.

PHP/MySQL case question?
Q. in my search engine script, i have the "select * from table1 where column1 like %$_POST[search]% or column2 like etc". But when i conduct the search, things appear to be case sensitive. For example, when searching for date, e.g. June, if i typed june, i couldn't find anything, only if i typed June. i could use the "strtoupper" function like: $_POST[search]=strtoupper ($_POST[search]); before the query above, and then search all in CAPS? any other solutions which will make things case insensitive? or put differently: how do you make a query result case insensitive?

A. like is case sensitive so your sql should be like: $_POST[search]=strtoupper ($_PO... select * from table1 where upper(column1) like '%$_POST[search]%' ... This is not the most eficient way of searching because upper has to be computed for the complete table each time. You can solve this adding column to store upper version of the column or try using full text search functions

I already tried shopt -s nocasematch, that didn't help. I know I can just convert the file names with another script first, but I'm also wanting to learn how to do this internally without external file name manipulation. Thanks in advance.

Char to Uppercase in Java?

A. change the code to this: choice = stdin.readLine() .toUpperCase().charAt(0); OR choice = Character.toUpperCase( stdin.readLine().charAt(0 ) ); Either one should work, but i think that the latter is more efficient. **yahoo truncates long strings, so I had to break the code up a bit... Each code was supposed to be one full line.

A. Hmm... assuming the function works as it would appear, you should be able to add the following code after the last curly brace before the termination of the PHP block: previewImage($_GET["dir"] ); Now when you load the page, by default it will load an image from the folder it is in, (because when dir is blank the folder that it ends up opening is its local directory), or you can now pass it GET arguments. Such as, suppose your file structure is this: index.html rand.php images/ wallpapers/ You could invoke rand to load a random image from images by loading "rand.php?dir=images/" or from wallpapers by loading "rand.php?dir=wallpapers/ ".

It sorts and array, then if one after if not equal to the current member it outputs it. Forget about the loop and i... The problem was == compares their addresses so you must use string1.equals(string2). Or some other function.
