Question

I need to remove trailing dot from my domain name. I have example below. What is the correct way to use it in the query?

$tank5 = "SELECT url FROM `db`.`tank` WHERE url LIKE rtrim('%$string%', '.')"; // this don't work I just test it.

I know I can just do this $string = rtrim($string, '.'); before the query but I was hoping I could run it on 1 line.

Is it actually possible? Thanks in advance.

Concatenate your string, instead:

$tank5 = "SELECT url FROM `db`.`tank` WHERE url LIKE '%".rtrim($string, '.')."%'";
