Deleting From Database
|
xdd_delete([DATABASE-FILE], [ENTRY-ID], {OPTION}, {OPTION})
|
[DATABASE-FILE]
Database File Path Location. This field should contain a relative path to either an existing database file, or one to be written. The name or extension of the file is a user choice. Many use .txt files or .db files.
[ENTRY-ID]
Entry identifier used to read, delete and replace entries. This string (text) can contain virtually any text.
{OPTION}
These are the locations of optional commands. They can be interchanged, and given in any order. Here is a list of optional commands for this function, and their properties.
"ID_OVERRIDE"
Stops the system from converting the specified ID to <!--ID-->. This is useful when searching for phrases or words instead of a default entry ID.
"NONCASE"
With NONCASE enabled the system will conduct a non-case sensitive search. Otherwise, "test", "TEST" and "tEsT" are seen as different words.
How It Works
xdd_delete() allows you to delete all matching entries with one function call. You can narrow or broaden your search using optional commands.
