Wildcard search does not match beginning of string

Consider the following SQL query, it gives me back one database row:

select * from task where description like '%Something%';

I would expect the following query to produce the same, but I get zero results:

api/task?q={"filters":[{"name":"description","op":"like","val":"%Something%"}]}

When I search for "Something%", I do get back the same row as the SQL query.

I think this is because you need to URL encode your query parameters. This should be noted in the documentation.

This explains #331 also.

Let me know if that works for you so I can close this issue.

Ah, encoding it works! Was pasting the queries into the address bar, I thought the browser would do the encoding automatically. Odd that "Something%" does work without explicitly encoding.
