The query becomes part of the currently open transaction. If
there is no open transaction, <span class="function"><strong>ingres_query()</strong></span>
opens a new transaction. To close the transaction, you can
call either <span class="function"><a href="function.ingres-commit.html" class="function">ingres_commit()</a></span> to commit the changes
made to the database or <span class="function"><a href="function.ingres-rollback.html" class="function">ingres_rollback()</a></span> to
cancel these changes. When the script ends, any open transaction
is rolled back (by calling
<span class="function"><a href="function.ingres-rollback.html" class="function">ingres_rollback()</a></span>). You can also use
<span class="function"><a href="function.ingres-autocommit.html" class="function">ingres_autocommit()</a></span> before opening a new
transaction to have every SQL query immediately committed.
