I just can say that setting the length in ocibindbyname doesn't solve
the problem also. And i still am curious about why "Select * from
t_table where c_column = 'text'" works. I already said, the column is a
char(10) but the data stored in there is e.g. 'text', so 4 chars filled
with blanks on database side, so it fits into the char(10) column.
why is it working without bindvars and with it is not and why is this
an expected behaviour? Anyway...thanx for your answers.

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

This is actually an expected behavior. Variable returned by bind from
Oracle needs to fit into the POHP variable, thus you whether declare
$text as 'texttextte'; (10 chars) or set it in OCIBindByName (10).

to make things clearer:
c_column is a char(10) column, but there's also data stored that is
shorter, e.g. 'text'. Therefore "Select * from t_table where c_column =
'text'" works.

when i select from a oracle8i:
----------------------------------
$stmt = ociparse($conn, "Select * from t_table where c_column =
'text'");
ociexecute($stmt);
-------------------------
and c_column is a char column, everything works fine, even if the data
i'm asking for is shorter than the column.
(c_column is a char(10) and i'm looking for 'text')
but as soon as i use ocibindbyname, i won't get a result back:
-------------------------
$stmt = ociparse($conn, "Select * from t_table where c_column =
:bindvar");
$text = 'text';
ocibindbyname($stmt, ":bindvar", &$text, -1);
ociexecute($stmt);
-------------------------
it also doesn't work, if i set the length-parameter in ocibindbyname to
the length of the char column or lenght+1:
-------------------------
$stmt = ociparse($conn, "Select * from t_table where c_column =
:bindvar");
$text = 'text';
ocibindbyname($stmt, ":bindvar", &$text, 10);
ociexecute($stmt);
-------------------------
ocibindbyname only works with char columns, when the data of the
bindvariable is as long as the char column or if like-operator and % is
used:
-------------------------
$stmt = ociparse($conn, "Select * from t_table where c_column like
:bindvar");
$text = 'text%';
ocibindbyname($stmt, ":bindvar", &$text, -1);
ociexecute($stmt);
-------------------------
