<para>
Submits a command to the server and waits for the result, with the ability
to pass parameters separately from the SQL command text.
</para>
<para>
<function>pg_query_params</function> is like <function>pg_query</function>,
but offers additional functionality: parameter
values can be specified separately from the command string proper.
<function>pg_query_params</function> is supported only against PostgreSQL 7.4 or
higher connections; it will fail when using earlier versions.
</para>
<para>
If parameters are used, they are referred to in the
<parameter>query</parameter> string as $1, $2, etc. The same parameter may
appear more than once in the <parameter>query</parameter>; the same value
will be used in that case. <parameter>params</parameter> specifies the
actual values of the parameters. A &null; value in this array means the
corresponding parameter is SQL <literal>NULL</literal>.
</para>
<para>
The primary advantage of <function>pg_query_params</function> over <function>pg_query</function>
is that parameter values
may be separated from the <parameter>query</parameter> string, thus avoiding the need for tedious
and error-prone quoting and escaping. Unlike <function>pg_query</function>,
<function>pg_query_params</function> allows at
most one SQL command in the given string. (There can be semicolons in it,
but not more than one nonempty command.)

<listitem>
<para>
The parameterized SQL statement. Must contain only a single statement.
(multiple statements separated by semi-colons are not allowed.) If any parameters
are used, they are referred to as $1, $2, etc.
</para>
<para>
User-supplied values should always be passed as parameters, not
interpolated into the query string, where they form possible
<link linkend="security.database.sql-injection"> SQL injection</link>
attack vectors and introduce bugs when handling data containing quotes.
If for some reason you cannot use a parameter, ensure that interpolated
values are <link linkend="function.pg-escape-string">properly escaped</link>.

<varlistentry>

<listitem>
<para>
An array of parameter values to substitute for the $1, $2, etc. placeholders
in the original prepared query string. The number of elements in the array
must match the number of placeholders.
</para>
<para>
Values intended for <literal>bytea</literal> fields are not supported as
parameters. Use <function>pg_escape_bytea</function> instead, or use the
large object functions.
