If this is your actual code, you are not passing the connection resource
variable to pg_query.
(see here: http://us4.php.net/manual/en/function.pg-query.php )

I would do a pg_fetch_array, and then foreach through the array like
this:

$query_rows = pg_num_rows($resource_from_pg_query);
for($iterator = 0; $iterator < $query_rows; $iterator++)
{
$my_db_array = pg_fetch_array($resource_from_pg_query)
foreach ($my_db_array as $mdba_name => $mdba_value)
{
define("$mdba_name", "$mdba_value");
}
}

then a print_r(get_defined_vars) should give you your vars..

Hope this helps!
