Ok, it seem that is not what I am seeking.

I have a triggered function that works quite well on an insert into a table.

What I would like to do is trigger that same function when conditions are 
updated in an other table. 

I'm trying to avoid having to copy the whole function over to an update 
trigger. 

An other method would be to have the function triggered by a separate table and 
then insert (then delete) a value into that table to trigger the function - but 
I am hoping someone can come up with another way?

    However, perhaps I don't understand the idea of a function.
