In response to Help with pg_loimport  (Richard Whittaker <richard@connections.yk.ca>)
List pgsql-php
Is it not as straight forward as it looks? I've never used large objects in
PostgreSQL so I really don't know..

From the PHP manual :

>int pg_loimport (int file [, int connection_id])

>The filename argument specifies the pathname of the file to be imported as
a large object. Returns FALSE if an error occurred, object id of the just
created >large object otherwise. Remember that handling large objects in
PostgreSQL must happen inside a transaction.

Looks like file there is a file descriptor returned by fopen() [?] and the
connection ID is that of the PostgreSQL connection.. What happens when you
try it?
