Re: parse error in function

Apologies, I jumped the gun, amd misread your e-mail.

Isn't the syntax for "select into"...

select column1, column2 into variable1, variable2 from {yourtable} where
{some-condition};

Your statement would be:

SELECT id_user INTO tmp FROM user WHERE id_user = email;

See http://www.postgres.org/docs/current/interactive/sql-selectinto.html

Hope that helps.
