How do I declare a cursor in a stored procedure if that cursor contains

I can't get passed this message:

'Cannot mix placeholder styles "$1" and ":foo"'

The message doesn't give a useful line number, so I don't even know
which
line it's complaining about.

Difficult to say - perhaps the source of the function would help. You don't actually mention what language you're using even.

However, I'd look for anywhere you're using ":varname" since that isn't valid plpgsql.

Then, I'd look at the OPEN ... CURSOR ... EXECUTE form of cursor opening (see manuals for details).
