<para>
<function>pg_escape_identifier</function> escapes a identifier
(e.g. table, field names) for querying the database. It returns an
escaped identifier string for PostgreSQL
server. <function>pg_escape_identifier</function> adds double
quotes before and after data. Users should not add double
quotes. Use of this function is recommended for identifier
parameters in query. For SQL literals (i.e. parameters except
bytea), <function>pg_escape_literal</function>
or <function>pg_escape_string</function> must be used. For bytea
type fields, <function>pg_escape_bytea</function> must be used
instead.
</para>
<note>
<para>
This function has internal escape code and can also be used with
PostgreSQL 8.4 or less.
