MySql och case insensitive ORDER BY

Ute på ljupt vatten. Hittade detta:

On character type columns, sortinglike all other comparison operationsis normally per- formed in a case-insensitive fashion. This means that the order will be undened for columns that are identical except for their case. You can force a case-sensitive sort by using the BINARY cast: ORDER BY BINARY(field). To sort in reverse order, add the DESC (descending) keyword to the name of the column you are sorting by

tack!

Jag hade faktikst ordet binary i minnet men men...

Det blir fortfarande samma resultat, hmm.

Har du provat detta ?

SELECT username FROM user ORDER BY username ASC;

japp och vad jag vet så körs alla frågor i MySql som default med ASC.

Har denna typen på ett flertal sidor med gott resultat.

Select users From TABLE Order By NAME ASC", conn, 3, 3

Läs även i manualen hur det är tänkt att fungera:

Speciellt dessa stycke:

On character type columns, sorting — like all other comparison operations — is normally performed in a case-insensitive fashion. This means that the order is undefined for columns that are identical except for their case. You can force a case-sensitive sort for a column by using BINARY like so: ORDER BY BINARY col_name.

The default sort order is ascending, with smallest values first. To sort in reverse (descending) order, add the DESC keyword to the name of the column you are sorting by

" You can force a case-sensitive sort for a column by using BINARY like so: ORDER BY BINARY col_name."

Äsch, läste fel då. Men jag vet inte varför det inte funkar.

Aha! Jag hade latin1_bin som collation. Ändrade det till latin1_swedish... och nu blir det rätt.

EDIT: är kanske bättre att köra med latin1_general_ci
