Re: [SQL] URL activation through trigger

Sandeep,

Using pl/perl at least, you could probably do this. My guess is that
pl/python (and perhaps pl/R) would offer similar functionality. At
least for pl/perl, I think you would need to use the untrusted version
and use a module like LWP. I haven't tried this, but I think it should
be possible (and fairly easy to do). Perhaps others can add some more
detail.
