[mapguide-users] Filter Syntax Question

[Chris Claydon]

Try using: "LAST" LIKE '$USER_VARIABLE%'

The LIKE comparison seems to be case insensitive, and the % is a
wildcard that means you don't have to type in the whole string to get a
match.

Subject: [mapguide-users] Filter Syntax Question


Hi,

I'm setting up a couple of search functions and having trouble with one
of
them... I'm working in MapGuide Studio and using the built in search
function. The search term I am trying to pass is...

"LAST" = (document.write(str.toUpperCase( '$USER_VARIABLE' )))

It validates ok, but doesn't return any results. 

The problem is that the "LAST" field is all uppercase, and I want people
to
be to search by lowercase and have MapGuide automatically convert it.

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks
