searching values contains / charcter

[Barış G öral]

hi Puneet,

  im using PHP/MapScript

  using a code like

  $this->qLayer->queryByAttributes($fldName, "('[STEPNUM]' =~ /123/)",
MS_MULTIPLE);

  the query returns result,

  $this->qLayer->queryByAttributes($fldName, "('[STEPNUM]' =~ /123/12/)",
MS_MULTIPLE);


  the query returns 0, but there are values like 123/123 or 123/12.

best regards.
