Default value
B
Description
This variable defines how WhizBase engine will perform
the search for values provided by WBF_ form fields. WhizBase engine uses SQL to retrieve data from the database, and SQL uses
joker (wildcard) characters like * (% in ANSI SQL) or ? (_ in ANSI SQL) for
"LIKE" comparison (WhizBase can do LIKE comparison for fields of TEXT and MEMO
data type). By default WhizBase adds wildcards on both sides of data provided
using WBF_ form
fields. By using WB_AddJoker variable, this behavior can be changed.
WBF_Name value | WB_AddJoker value | WHERE clause |
John | B | Name LIKE "*John*" |
John | E | Name LIKE "John*" |
John | S | Name LIKE "*John" |
John | N | Name LIKE "John" |
