> This section describes functions and operators for examining and
manipulating string values. Strings in this context include values
of the types <TT
CLASS="TYPE"
>character</TT
>, <TT
CLASS="TYPE"
>character varying</TT
>,
and <TT
CLASS="TYPE"
>text</TT
>. Unless otherwise noted, all
of the functions listed below work on all of these types, but be
wary of potential effects of automatic space-padding when using the
<TT

natively for the bit-string types.

key words, rather than commas, to separate
arguments. Details are in

>Note: </B
> Before <SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>PostgreSQL</SPAN
> 8.3, these functions would
silently accept values of several non-string data types as well, due to
the presence of implicit coercions from those data types to
<TT
CLASS="TYPE"
>text</TT
>. Those coercions have been removed because they frequently
caused surprising behaviors. However, the string concatenation operator
(<TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>||</TT
>) still accepts non-string input, so long as at least one
input is of a string type, as shown in <A
HREF="functions-string.html#FUNCTIONS-STRING-SQL"
>Table 9-6</A
>. For other cases, insert an explicit
coercion to <TT
CLASS="TYPE"
>text</TT
> if you need to duplicate the previous behavior.

destination encoding name. Therefore, the names might deviate
