Not quite. I tried the following:
Parameters: $1=integer, $2=NULL, $3=varchar
And I had the function test for nulls. It read the first
parameter, but not $3. It did return the string telling me
it had found nulls, however.

Damn! When is the "holy grail" of PostgreSQL going to be
stable enough to use? Beta3 still has a "not advisable for
production" warning, and I'm being tied up in knots by the
number of things I need in 7.1.
Would it help if I sent more money? :-)
