Note that you can refer to the temp table like this:

select * from pg_temp.testtable;

Also, you can make the non-temp table first in the search path by
putting pg_temp later than the public schema (or wherever you have
created the function):


select * from testtable;	-- refers to temp
set search_path to 'public', 'pg_temp';
select * from testtable;	-- refers to non-temp
