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
