Description

Page: http://www.gdal.org/ogr/drv_pg.html

PG:"dbname='databasename' server='addr' port='5432' user='x' passwd='y'"

need to be:

PG:"dbname='databasename' host='addr' port='5432' user='x' passwd='y'"

At least for 1.5.2. It needs to be clear about the gdal release, May be add it in the doc?

The example was just wrong. As indicated in the doc, this parameter is just forwarded to the PostgreSQL client library, so this is not even related to the GDAL version. I've looked in the PostgreSQL doc for various versions (PG 7.3, 7.4, 8.1, 8.3) and it seems the correct option has always been 'host'.

Fixed in r16741. Thanks.
