Escapestring not escaping ^

[jda]

Hi Ruslan,

I tried this LIKE search

select id,hit from thereferences where (allFields LIKE 'the') order by id

and got no hits (there should be dozens). REGEX works here. So LIKE 
is not a substitute for REGEX for me.

This means I have to write my own method to escape every possible 
character the user might enter, right? I still think this is a 
valentian-level function, but I'll do it if I have to.
