note 77039 added to function.pdostatement-bindparam

I can't use wildcards in my prepared statements, using it like follows: $stmt = $pdh->prepare("SELECT id, uname FROM tbl WHERE uname LIKE :uname OR email LIKE :email OR firstname LIKE :fn OR lastname LIKE :ln"); $un = "%" . $un . "%"; $em = "%" . $em . "%"; $fn = "%" . $fn . "%"; $ln = "%" . $ln . "%"; $stmt->bindParam(":uname", $un); $stmt->bindParam(":email", $em); $stmt->bindParam(":fn", $fn); $stmt->bindParam(":ln", $ln); This is not giving me any error messages or exceptions, it's just not returning any rows. (And there are rows matching the query...)
