     Performs a query on an InterBase database. If the query raises an error,
     returns &false;. If it is successful and there is a (possibly empty)
     result set (such as with a SELECT query), returns a result identifier. If
     the query was successful and there were no results, returns &true;.

      <para>
      In PHP 5.0.0 and up, this function will return the number of rows affected by
      the query for INSERT, UPDATE and DELETE statements. In order to retain backward
      compatibility, it will return &true; for these statements if the query succeeded 
      without affecting any rows.

     <para>
      If you get some error like "arithmetic exception, numeric overflow,
      or string truncation. Cannot transliterate character between character
      sets" (this occurs when you try use some character with accents)
      when using this and after <function>ibase_query</function> you must
      set the character set (i.e. ISO8859_1 or your current character set).
