mysql_drop_db
mysql_drop_db attempts to drop (remove) an entire database from the server associated with the specified link identifier. This function is deprecated, it is preferable to use mysql_query to issue an sql DROP DATABASE statement instead.
Parameters
- database_name
-
The name of the database that will be deleted.
- link_identifier
The MySQL connection. If the link identifier is not specified, the last link opened by mysql_connect is assumed. If no such link is found, it will try to create one as if mysql_connect had been called with no arguments. If no connection is found or established, an E_WARNING level error is generated.
Return Values
Returns true on success or false on failure.
Notes
Warning:
This function will not be available if the MySQL extension was built against a MySQL 4.x client library.
