PHP PostgreSQL Functions
EditRocket provides the following information on PostgreSQL functions in the PHP source code builder.
int pg_affected_rows ( resource $result ) - pg_affected_rows() returns the number of tuples (instances/records/rows) affected by INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE queries.
bool pg_cancel_query ( resource $connection ) -

The returned string will be one of the standard PostgreSQL encoding identifiers.
