DROP TRIGGER()			 SQL Commands			DROP TRIGGER()



NAME
       DROP TRIGGER - remove a trigger


SYNOPSIS
       DROP TRIGGER name ON table [ CASCADE | RESTRICT ]


DESCRIPTION
       DROP  TRIGGER  will  remove  an existing trigger definition. To execute
       this command, the current user must be the owner of the table for which
       the trigger is defined.

PARAMETERS
       name   The name of the trigger to remove.

       table  The  name	 (optionally  schema-qualified) of the table for which
	      the trigger is defined.

       CASCADE
	      Automatically drop objects that depend on the trigger.

       RESTRICT
	      Refuse to drop the trigger if any objects depend on it. This  is
	      the default.

EXAMPLES
       Destroy the trigger if_dist_exists on the table films:

       DROP TRIGGER if_dist_exists ON films;


COMPATIBILITY
       The  DROP  TRIGGER statement in PostgreSQL is incompatible with the SQL
       standard. In the SQL standard, trigger names are not local  to  tables,
       so the command is simply DROP TRIGGER name.
