PGSQL Query - Mailing list pgsql-novice

Hi list:

I am using sqlquery to build a report in a chameleon
(php/mapscript)-enabled online mapping application. Having little
experience in PostgreSQL, I uploaded a shapefile (empchgfinal.shp)
to PostgreSQL database, created a spatial index (gist type, name
"emp") for the shapefile and wrote the following SQL query in the
html file. However, when I draw the select the area of interest
(using ROI widget) and click generate report, I got an empty result.
Could someone please give me some guidance as to how to fix it?  Any
suggestions will be highly appreciated.

Sincerely,
Jessica Fendos
