Add a new sequence to your database:

Then, at the start of every session:
  SELECT nextval('my_session_id');

and whenever you need the value:
  SELECT currval('my_session_id');

Good idea, but it won't work for what I need.
I'll be able to do get the nextval('my_session_id') as soon as the
session initiates, but my problem is that I need to make all the
subsecuent actions aware of that particular value. using
currval('my_session_id') is not good, as any other session is likely to
also change my_session_id to another value.

No - other sessions will see different values. Test it and see. -- Richard Huxton Archonet Ltd
