Yes, it's right. Triggers are part of a transaction (or run their
own) so if the trigger fails, so does the transaction.
If you really need to have something insert rather or not the
transaction succeeds, you can either use savepoints so that you can
roll back to before the error then insert the row anyway, or use
dblink to connect to the db through another backend and commit your
data that way.
You might want to give more info on exactly what you're trying to do
so the folks on the list can make better informed recommendations.
