trigger firing order

Hi, how can I tell in which order are triggered different triggers on the
same table, let me explain ,
I have three triggers for table A, all of then are intended for "before
insert" on the table, in ASA I can tell the Db in which order I want the
triggers to fire, is there an equivalent for postgres ??

thanks for your help

Postgres 8.0.4
Windows XP

IIRC, I've read some where that they are activated in alphabetical order.

Triggers of the same type fire in alphabetical order; at least, that's how it
works is 7.4.6.

Although, you should really be on at LEAST 7.4.12... :)

They're fired in alphabetical order. I tend to prefix my trigger names
with numbers for that reason ;)
