Template talk:Nesdbbox

If you can set unif's search type to be "unif_op=LIKE+`%25%40%25`" then we can use SQL GLOBs in the template rather than having to enumerate all the variants, q.v. "http://bootgod.dyndns.org:7777/search.php?unif_op=LIKE+%60%25%40%25%60&unif=A%25ROM" —Lidnariq (talk) 04:01, 23 April 2015 (MDT)

Well, technically you could make any search string you like, the form is just "PARAM1"="PARAM2" so you could just cram "unif_op"="LIKE+%60%25%40%25%60&unif=A%25ROM" into the string, but if you can explain how that URL you just made work I could try and make an easy-to-use form of this for the template. What does unif_op do? What does "LIKE+`@%@`" mean? Is the % in A%ROM a wildcard character that the LIKE operation expands? (Is this documented somewhere?)

What would you like the template code to look like? Something like this?

{{nesdblink|unif_wildcard|A%ROM|AxROM}}
