I've managed to create a cursor
and can fetch the data row by row:

quincy=> start TRANSACTION;
quincy=> declare XXX cursor for select to_char(qdatetime,
'YYYY-MM-DD') as
QDATETIME,ID,NAME,CATEGORY,APPSVERSION,OSVERSION,DETAILS,DEVINFO from
quincyview where qdatetime <= now() order by QDATETIME desc ;
quincy=> fetch XXX;
.....
quincy=> fetch XXX;
.....

But how do I "go back"?

For my jQuery HTML table (DataTables.net)
I need to be able to go back and forth.
