Control question, I didn't check it, but would it be enough to change from:
UPDATE join1 SET text1 = NEW.text1 WHERE id = OLD.id;
to:
UPDATE join1 SET text1 = NEW.text1 WHERE id = OLD.id AND text1 <> NEW.text1?
... I may be wrong. :)
Yes, thats more elegant then my other (4th) solution.
Was late yesterday evening ;)
Thanks
