OK, I don't seem to be getting a response.  Let me try to simplify:

I'm running a PHP application with MySQL.
I'm in a transaction involving only BDB tables.  Actually the whole database has 
nothing but BDB
tables.
I attempt a query which fails with error number 1213.  The full text message is 
something like:
Can't get lock because of a deadlock.

My questions:
1. When the query fails am I still inside the transaction, or has it already been 
rolled back ?
2. If the transaction has not been rolled back, how many times should I re-try the 
query before
giving up and re-starting the transaction ?
3. If the transaction has been rolled back, what is a reasonable number of times to 
re-start the
transaction ?
