title: SQL LIKE command doesn't work with strings containing dots
body: <p>I am writing an (My)SQL query that looks like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>SELECT *
  FROM releases
  WHERE version LIKE '12.3%'
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I want all subversions of 12.3 but it gives me nothing (though there are such records). If I instead write 12% then it works. I guess I will have to escape the dots or...?</p>
