Hello all, Not sure if this is a bug, i'm starting to think it could be. Works fine for other queries, but not this one for some reason. bind_param simply doesn't replace the param no matter what I do: 
my $blogTagToShow           =       shift;
my $dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:SQLite:dbname=$db");
$dbh->trace(4);
my $query = "SELECT * FROM tblBlogPosts WHERE fldTags LIKE '%?%' ORDER
+ BY fldDate DESC";    
my $sth = $dbh->prepare($query);
$sth->bind_param(1, $blogTagToShow);
$dbh->trace(0);

When looking at the trace, it seems to go through the motions of binding the param, but doesn't. 
sqlite trace: prepare statement: SELECT * FROM tblBlogPosts WHERE fldT
+ags LIKE '%?%' ORDER BY fldDate DESC at dbdimp.c line 258
    <- prepare= DBI::st=HASH(0x93bba20) at Libraries//libBlog.pm line 
+42 via  at index.pl line 152
    -> bind_param for DBD::SQLite::st (DBI::st=HASH(0x93bba20)~0x93b64
+ec 1 'windows')
sqlite trace: bind into 0x93b6504: 1 => windows (0) pos 0

Anyone got any ideas ? Cheers!, Dave
