Indeed:

SELECT *
FROM mytable
WHERE
ST_DWithin(mytable.the_geom, ST_SetSRID(MakePoint($x, $y), $srid), $distance);

I don't understand how the Distance() and Intersects() and Contains () function wouldn't work for this?

Are X and Y radius the same?

what I want to do is finding certain features in some distance around a certain point. Those features should be located in some corridor between X
and Y km around this point. Currently I've solved this problem by
computing two bounding boxes of X and Y km around the point and taking the
difference of those. So far so good.

But I don't want to have some quadratic box but a real circle - is there
any way to achieve this?

Best regards,
Rainer
