Обсуждение: LIKE with spaces

I'm using a query ... WHERE streetname LIKE 'ST DAV%' but, of course it
doesn't work. LIKE 'ST%' does work however, so I assume the space is
causing some grief to the query parser. Ver 6.5.2 on RH linux. Can
anyone tell why this doesn't work, and more importantly, if there is a
way to make it work?

*sigh*

Define "doesn't work".

Not here. I'm using 7.0 beta. Not sure if there were changes in these
things, maybe you could dig around in the release notes.
