How to delete data from multiple tables?

Question

I have these tables:

event     (evt_id, evt_code, reg_id)

magnitude (mag_id, evt_id, value)

trace     (trace_id, pt_id)

point     (         


        

Answer 1

$delete =  1139;
$query = "DELETE FROM event, magnitude, point WHERE evt_id = '$delete'";
mysql_query($query, $con);
$query = "DELETE FROM trace WHERE pt_id = '$delete'";

or just paste that statement into an .sql file and run it, or into your sql software query window, or place it in a .php file and run on the server.
