case-insensitive

I'm developing an app in Rails on OS X using PostgreSQL 8.4. I need to setup the database for the app so that standard text queries are case-insensitive. For example: SELECT * FROM documents WHERE title = 'incredible document' should return the same result as: SELECT * FROM documents WHERE title = 'Incredible Document' Just to be clear, I don't want to use: (1) LIKE in the where clause or any other type of special comparison operators (2) citext for the column datatype or any other special column index (3) any type of full-text software like Sphinx What I do want is to set the database locale

I'm having problems finding the answer here, on google or in the docs ... I need to do a case insensitive select against an array type. So if: value = {"Foo","bar","bAz"} I need SELECT value FROM table WHERE 'foo' = ANY(value) to match. I've tried lots of combinations of lower() with no success. ILIKE instead of = seems to work but I've always been nervous about LIKE - is that the best way?

You have to install and enable the mod_speling module in apache and set the CheckCaseOnly Directive to On in your .htaccess CheckCaseOnly On If you want requested URLs to be valid whether uppercase or lowercase letters are used, use mod_speling to make URLs case-insensitive. Write the following code in .htaccess file: CheckSpelling On This is what I used because my hosting is shared and does not include the mod_spelling module but does support .htaccess, but this only works for one folder:

I am trying to ignore case sensitivity on a string. For example, a user can put "Brazil" or "brasil" and the fun will trigger. How do I implement this? I am new to Kotlin. fun questionFour() { val edittextCountry = findViewById<EditText>(R.id.editTextCountry) val answerEditText = edittextCountry.getText().toString() if (answerEditText == "Brazil") { correctAnswers++ } if (answerEditText == "Brasil") { correctAnswers++ } } EDIT Another person helped me write like this. My question now about this way is "Is there a cleaner way to write this?" fun questionFour() { val edittextCountry =
