title: MySQL case insensitive search on varbinary field?
body: <p>I have a varbinary field id like to do a case-insensitive search on. </p>
  
  <p>I know that the way varbinary fields work prohibits you from doing something like so:</p>
  
  <pre><code>WHERE LOWER(page_title) = LOWER("Gasket")
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>So is there a way to do this? I imagine I could temporarily cast the field as a varchar or something. But I'm not sure.</p>
