If on "accident" your program passes pg_result_status a variable that is NOT a actual pg resource, it will return an empty string.
(This is important to know if you want to make sure a pg resource is "good" before attempting some operation on it).
pg_result_status
(PHP 4 >= 4.2.0, PHP 5)

Example #1 pg_result_status() example
<?php
// Connect to the database
$conn = pg_pconnect("dbname=publisher");
// Execute a COPY
$result = pg_query($conn, "COPY authors FROM STDIN;");
// Get the result status
$status = pg_result_status($result);
