FUNCTION problem - Mailing list pgsql-general

HI everybody !

I have a problem, but I don't know the solution:

CREATE TABLE person(
  user_id SERIAL NOT NULL,
  uid CHARACTER(20) NOT NULL,
  pwd CHARACTER(20) NOT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (user_id)
  );

OK, That's right...

CREATE FUNCTION getuserid (CHARACTER(20),CHARACTER(20))
RETURNS SETOF INTEGER
AS
'
SELECT user_id FROM person WHERE uid=$1 AND pwd=$2;
'
LANGUAGE 'sql';

:-(

ERROR:  Unable to identify an operator '=$' for types 'character' and
'integer
You will have to retype this query using an explicit cast.

Please help me. I'm gona Crazy ...
I would like to write that function
with plain Sql / LANGUAGE 'sql' /.
