Hello Danny,
I can't go through your whole script but I recommend you use Pear::DB as
an abstraction layer for the pgsql connection and interaction.
This will give you more power with the debug and you can keep everything
simple IMHO.
More info at
http://pear.php.net/manual/en/package.database.php#package.database.db
It is default on PHP, so you don't even need to install anything.
I'll second this. When he can get the SQL syntax down, then he should
play with PEAR. :-)
However, I think knowing the standard pg_connect(), pg_query() commands
would be useful..then when he goes to try PEAR, he'll see how much time
and more useful it can be.
my 34 cents,
-Robby
