[Phpmyadmin-devel] Support for LIKE %...% operator while searching numeric fields in table search screen
Hi,
Currently there is no 'LIKE %...%' operator for the numeric fields in table search screen. But there are some scenarios we need to search the numeric fields (int, date etc) with 'LIKE' operator + wildcard characters (LIKE %2012%). So, was there any reason for not using that previously ? If we can give the support for this, it hopefully provide a different way to bypass the problem in bug [0]. Any thoughts on this ?

Hi Chanaka, I don't see a reason for not offering this (but take care of not showing this option by default, as the leading % wildcard bypasses any index.

Hi Marc,
You mean in any case ? No, currently it only included to text operators. I'll add this operator to numeric fiels.
