Can 'false' match some string in mysql?

Question

I have a table like this:

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `session` (
  `id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `token` varchar(32) NOT NULL,
  `profile` varchar(1000

This should be a comment, but I don't have enough reputation... so..

DelphiQin, you said in a comment that you are passing the result of the CI "get()" method to the query parameter. I've been there and I solved by just casting the variable to string before passing to the query:

(string)$my_var

This way, it will use '' (empty string) instead of boolean false.

I hope it helps people with the same problem.
