Use more quotes *g*:
Example:
test=*# create or replace function my_foo(text) returns int as '
declare s text;
begin s:=''select '''''' || $1 || '''''' as ...''; raise notice ''%'',s; return 1; end'
language 'plpgsql';
CREATE FUNCTION
test=*# select * from my_foo('2008-01-01');
NOTICE: select '2008-01-01' as ...my_foo
-------- 1
(1 row)
Better solution: use $-Quoting, example:
test=*# create or replace function my_foo(text) returns int as $$
declare s text;
begin s:='select ''' || $1 || ''' as ...';
raise notice '%',s;
return 1;
end$$
language 'plpgsql';
CREATE FUNCTION
test=*# select * from my_foo('2008-01-01');
NOTICE: select '2008-01-01' as ...my_foo
-------- 1
(1 row)
As you can see, same result but easier to read.

Use coalesce(), example:
test=*# select 'foo' || NULL || 'bar';?column?
----------
(1 row)
test=*# select 'foo' || coalesce(NULL,' empty string ') || 'bar'; ?column?
----------------------foo empty string bar
(1 row)
Hope that helps, Andreas
