Hi,
A user had a syntax problem with a cursor declaration. After a bit of digging,
the code he used came directly from the documentation :
DECLARE
CURSOR referrer_keys IS
SELECT * FROM cs_referrer_keys
ORDER BY try_order;
func_body text;
func_cmd text;
I guess it should be
DECLARE
referrer_keys CURSOR IS
SELECT * FROM cs_referrer_keys
ORDER BY try_order;
func_body text;
func_cmd text;
(syntax is inverted in Oracle, so I guess it is a typo ?)
If I'm right, a patch is attached (the code works with the correction)

The patch looks correct to me.

Committed. I back-patched this as far as 8.4 so that the web site
docs will get updated, but it didn't seem important enough to go back
further.
