Hi,
having a small problem in a trigger i want to automatically update a date field but when i use for example
update table set field = current_date where table.pk = new.pk
If "table" is the table with the trigger on it, you'll end up with an endless loop, since the trigger will keep firing itself.
In a BEFORE trigger, just update NEW and make sure you return NEW. Look at the example in the manual for details.
