删除查询mySQL上的空格

Question

Inside my database table called Postcodes I have rows like AB10 1AB , AB10 2AB

so when I'm pulling them to access a dynamic page they're appearing in the URL like AB10%201AB obviously because or being URL encoded, now how can I set the URL to just AB101AB and then still access the database row using AB101AB ?

in brief, I want to access a row inside a database which has a value of AB10 1AB using AB101AB

something like

SELECT 
    * 
FROM 
    `Postcodes` 
WHERE 
    `postcode` = REMOVEWHITESPACES FROM `postcode` ROW('AB101AB')

Answer 1

Use the replace() function (reference here ):

select *
from `Postcodes`
where replace(`postcode`, ' ', '') = 'AB101AB'
