Have you tried:
echo "CONN: $conn<br>";
echo "SQL: $sql<br>";
to see what is being passed to postgres?

I'm having trouble getting an SQL statement to use a variable. Here's
the statement:
$sql = "SELECT emp_fname FROM employee WHERE username = '$username'";
$result = pg_exec($conn,$sql);
if (!$result) {
exit;
}
I get the following warning from this:
Warning: Supplied argument is not a valid PostgreSQL link resource in
/var/www/personnel/include/functions.inc on line 25
Is there another way to use a variable in an SQL statement. This format
works with MySQL.
