I thought we'd determined that advancing bytewise for "%" was also risky, in two cases: 1. Multibyte character set that is not UTF8 (more specifically, does not have a guarantee that first bytes and not-first bytes are distinct) 2. "_" immediately follows the "%". regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 7: You can help support the PostgreSQL project by donating at http://www.postgresql.org/about/donate
