Delete all data from table using PDO


alenphp

Recommended Posts

Hi guys. I have following code to delete particular row from a table based on the title. But how can I delete all data from the table?

 

<?php
require 'connpdo.php';
$naslov = $_POST['naslov'];
#DELETE DATA
//delete some data
$sqlInsert = 'DELETE FROM bloging WHERE title=:title';
$preparedStatement = $conn->prepare($sqlInsert);
$preparedStatement->execute(array(':title' => $naslov));


//REDIRECT TO HOME PAGE
header('Location: http://localhost/ITAPHP/index.php');
?>

So I would need something which would say DELETE * FROM bloging...Basically I have this table bloging with 3 fields id, title and text, and above code will identify specific post based on the title and delete that particular post. But I need button to delete all posts, to empty table.

 

Thank you in advance!

quickest way is to run this query

TRUNCATE TABLE bloging

Would you be kind to put it in above code? I don't know how. I found following code using mysql not PDO and it works. But I need it in PDO. Or just tell me where exactly does it fit this line you wrote.  Thank you

 

$connection = mysql_connect("$host", "$username", "$password") or die ("Unable to connect to server");
mysql_select_db("$database") or die ("Unable to select database");
$sql = "TRUNCATE TABLE `$table`";
mysql_query($sql);
echo "Table Deleted";
mysql_close($connection);
