I am implementing some pl/pgsql functions.
Is there any way to change the input
for example- I got some value by $1. I want to modify this value
(means split that value), Can we do this and how?
Second thing,
Suppose i defined a function test as
select test('geom',the_geom,time) from tablename
.....
Inside body,
How can i get the tablename inside the body (because i haven't pass
table name to function)
......

If 'tablename' has to change then you need to take a look at "dynamic
sql" and the EXECUTE construct.
You can surely manipulate the value of $1 into either other variables or
define it as on OUT parameter if you want the caller to get a different
value back. The 8.3 chapter on this is here
