Thanks. But the two behave differently.
I tried both with the same data (see below) , Within returned more records.
select * into dupage from maj where Contains((select the_geom from city
where area_id=21002891), the_geom)
select * into dupage from maj where Within(the_geom, (select the_geom from
city where area_id=21002891) )
