I'm a total newbie to mySQL, but was hoping someone could answer a
question regarding adding a record into a database that has foreign key
constraints. Remember, I'm a total newbie so I'm hoping I'm using the
right words to express this. I'm taking a class that required us to use
an ER diagramm
sort of "trickles down" the structure.
(This
analogy could also help to visualize how the use of the word "cascade"
describes the auto-propagation of a delete or update to the dependent
tables)
