How to find the address has \n or not ? in mysql

Answer 1

You use a string function to verify the presence of single characters:

SELECT FROM YourTable WHERE LOCATE("\n", textColumn) != 0;

This won’t work, if the first character is a newline, though, so you might want to check that too:

SELECT FROM YourTable WHERE LEFT(textColumn, 1) != "\n" AND LOCATE("\n", textColumn) != 0;
