Re: SQL For smarties

I am trying to create tables from within a funtion i.e.

create function _tree_create(text) retuns int as '
begin;
create table $1_tree (....);
return 1;
end;
...

select _tree_create('item');

An error message refering to $1 gets thrown up. Is this not possible to do
or is there another way of doing it?

Thanks in advance.
