In response to transaction in function  (Marian POPESCU <softexpert@libertysurf.fr>)
List pgsql-sql
Any function runs into a single transaction so you don't need to worry  
about rolling back on exceptions - this is the standard behavior. If there  
is an exception while running any statement   inside the function it's  
rolls back automatically.
