Just 2 notes:
1. I think that rowlocking (whatever it means) is not (probably) necessary during whole user session in described situation. I don't know real requirements, but consider the scenario when user sends both old (which he has received) and new values (which he has probably changed). The application logic can decide, if it is necessary to lock some rows for a while, check if the data in rows are equal to old values and change it into new values. And unlock, of course. (I suppose transaction isolation level = read commited and the transaction is started on the begin of every user request and ended on the every end of user request)
2. If you really don't have a mechanism for locking rows, you can mimize it using special column in the locked table, which is for pid of locking process. Consequently, you should have "WHERE pid = $$" in all updating/deleting commands. Just idea, probably leading to messy code, better way is to have PostgreSQL :>)

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
