You don't need to name the schema if it is "public" because public is the
default schema if you are connected to the correct database (although
mentioning "public" doesn't hurt either).

Could you maybe show us how exactly you establish the connection from within
php? Do other queries work from within that connection?

Also, remember to always check for errors after you issued a query.

If you have more php specific question you might want to consider
subscribing to the php-list, here:

http://mail.postgresql.org/mj/mj_wwwusr/domain=postgresql.org?func=lists-lon
g-full&extra=pgsql-php.

There is also an archive you might want to look into at:
