Re: any way for a transaction to "see" inserts done earlier in the transaction?

It is a fairly large and complex Perl program, so no, not really.

I do an insert via a function, which returns the new id, then later I try
to SELECT on that id, and it doesn't find it.

Could it be because the insert is done inside a function?
