It has nothing to do with the way you are using the cursor; your problem is that you are causing an error by attempting to COMMIT inside a function (which is not allowed). This rolls back the subtransaction defined by the BEGIN/EXCEPTION block. You then suppress any display of the error with the WHEN OTHERS block.
I thought you could *never* use commit (or rollback) inside a function? -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
