  </P
><P
>   Cursors have somewhat non-transactional behavior with respect to
   savepoints.  Any cursor that is opened inside a savepoint will be closed
   when the savepoint is rolled back.  If a previously opened cursor is
   affected by a <TT
CLASS="COMMAND"
>FETCH</TT
> or <TT
CLASS="COMMAND"
>MOVE</TT
> command inside a
   savepoint that is later rolled back, the cursor remains at the
   position that <TT
CLASS="COMMAND"
>FETCH</TT
> left it pointing to (that is, the cursor
   motion caused by <TT
CLASS="COMMAND"
>FETCH</TT
> is not rolled back).
   Closing a cursor is not undone by rolling back, either.
   However, other side-effects caused by the cursor's query (such as
   side-effects of volatile functions called by the query) <SPAN
CLASS="emphasis"
><I
CLASS="EMPHASIS"
>are</I
></SPAN
>
   rolled back if they occur during a savepoint that is later rolled back.
   A cursor whose execution causes a transaction to abort is put in a
   cannot-execute state, so while the transaction can be restored using
   <TT
CLASS="COMMAND"
>ROLLBACK TO SAVEPOINT</TT
>, the cursor can no longer be used.
