Hi Patricio,

	Perhaps I'm not understanding your suggestion correctly but
reversing fields:
SELECT the_geom FROM streets
WHERE SetSRID(’BOX3D(-111.80 33.30,-111.75 33.35)’::box3d,4269) && the_geom;
Produces the same response: 
ERROR:  syntax error at or near "33.30" at character 60

Thanks
Randy

hi,

change field the_geom position....

SELECT the_geom FROM streets
WHERE the_geom && SetSRID('BOX3D(-111.80 33.30 0.0, -111.75
33.350.0)'::box3d,4269);


example
$sqldata="the_geom from (SELECT * FROM ".$table." WHERE
SetSRID('BOX3D(".$ext[0]." ".$ext[1].",".$ext[2]." ".$ext[3].")'::box3d,-1)
&& the_geom ) as foo using unique gid using SRID=-1";
