Simple Q: How do I drop a MySQL table with PHP?

[Robo]

I know the command is DROP TABLE IF EXISTS [table name], but how do I use it in PHP?

I've successfully connected to the MySQL server, but when I put that line in the PHP script, I get an error.

Seen as you have already connected to the database you just need to run a query on it:

$res = mysql_query( 'DROP TABLE IF EXISTS name' );
