I have AES encrypted data stored in the database using php mysql. Which I entered using AES_ENCRYPT. Problem is that data is coming from iphone and “first name” of member is coming with first letter in UPPER CASE and stored as Upper. For examle ‘Pooja’

I am wondering when I go for searching the following then it does not give me any result.

SELECT *
FROM member
WHERE LOWER(AES_DECRYPT(fname,'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx')) LIKE'%$pooja%'

It gives me ‘Pooja’ when I dont use LOWER.

Can anybody please correct me here ??

    Are you sure that you want to have the %$ at the beginning?
    As others have said, LOWER should ignore case, so try this:

    SELECT * FROM member WHERE AES_DECRYPT(fname,'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx') LIKE 'pooja%';

    % matches zero or more arbitrary characters, so this query should match all of the following

    pooja
poojaaaa
pooja foo pooja bar

    but not

    pooj
pooj a
apooja
 pooja
