passing new.* in trigger

[Alessandro Vincelli]

I must pass NEW row to function count_room(rowtype) as in this code, but
pgsql return "_ NEW used in query that is not in a rule".
I have a bad syntax or is impossible pass NEW.*?

thanks, Ale

room int;
BEGIN

SELECT INTO camere count_room(NEW.*) FROM NEW ;
NEW.camere = camere;
RETURN NEW;
END;
'
LANGUAGE 'plpgsql' VOLATILE;

That will work in 8.0, but not before.
