Delete Existing MySQL Table Using PHP Script
As we know that PHP provides us the function named mysql_query to delete an existing MySQL table.
Example
To illustrate this we are deleting a table named ‘Tutorials_tbl’ with the help of PHP script in the following example −
<html> <head> <title>Creating MySQL Tables</title> </head> <body> <?php $dbhost = 'localhost:3036'; $dbuser = 'root'; $dbpass = 'rootpassword'; $conn = mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass); if(! $conn ) { die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error()); } echo 'Connected successfully<br />'; $sql = "DROP TABLE tutorials_tbl"; mysql_select_db( 'TUTORIALS' ); $retval = mysql_query( $sql, $conn ); if(! $retval ) { die('Could not delete table: ' . mysql_error()); } echo "Table deleted successfully
"; mysql_close($conn); ?> </body> </html>
