首先，目前在產品環境可用的MySQL版本（指4.0.x和4.1.x）中，只有InnoDB引擎才允許使用外鍵，所以，我們的數據表必須使用InnoDB引擎。
下面，我們先創建以下測試用數據庫表：
CREATE TABLE `roottb` (
`id` INT(11) UNSIGNED AUTO_INCREMENT NOT NULL,
`data` VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
) TYPE=InnoDB;
CREATE TABLE `subtb` (
`id` INT(11) UNSIGNED AUTO_INCREMENT NOT NULL,
`rootid` INT(11) UNSIGNED NOT NULL DEFAULT '0',
`data` VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
PRIMARY KEY (`id`),
INDEX (`rootid`),
FOREIGN KEY (`rootid`) REFERENCES roottb(`id`) ON DELETE CASCADE
) TYPE=InnoDB;
注意：
1、必須使用InnoDB引擎；
2、外鍵必須建立索引（INDEX）；
3、外鍵綁定關系這里使用了“ ON DELETE CASCADE”，意思是如果外鍵對應數據被刪除，將關聯數據完全刪除，更多信息請參考MySQL手冊中關于InnoDB的文檔；
好，接著我們再來插入測試數據：
INSERT INTO `roottb` (`id`,`data`)
VALUES ('1', 'test root line 1'),
('2', 'test root line 2'),
('3', 'test root line 3');
INSERT INTO `subtb` (`id`,`rootid`,`data`)
VALUES ('1', '1', 'test sub line 1 for root 1'),
('2', '1', 'test sub line 2 for root 1'),
('3', '1', 'test sub line 3 for root 1'),
('4', '2', 'test sub line 1 for root 2'),
('5', '2', 'test sub line 2 for root 2'),
('6', '2', 'test sub line 3 for root 2'),
('7', '3', 'test sub line 1 for root 3'),
('8', '3', 'test sub line 2 for root 3'),
('9', '3', 'test sub line 3 for root 3');
我們先看一下當前數據表的狀態：
mysql>; show tables;
+----------------+
| Tables_in_test |
+----------------+
| roottb |
| subtb |
+----------------+
2 rows in set (0.00 sec)
mysql>; select * from `roottb`;
+----+------------------+
| id | data |
+----+------------------+
| 1 | test root line 1 |
| 2 | test root line 2 |
| 3 | test root line 3 |
+----+------------------+
3 rows in set (0.05 sec)
mysql>; select * from `subtb`;
+----+--------+----------------------------+
| id | rootid | data |
+----+--------+----------------------------+
| 1 | 1 | test sub line 1 for root 1 |
| 2 | 1 | test sub line 2 for root 1 |
| 3 | 1 | test sub line 3 for root 1 |
| 4 | 2 | test sub line 1 for root 2 |
| 5 | 2 | test sub line 2 for root 2 |
| 6 | 2 | test sub line 3 for root 2 |
| 7 | 3 | test sub line 1 for root 3 |
| 8 | 3 | test sub line 2 for root 3 |
| 9 | 3 | test sub line 3 for root 3 |
+----+--------+----------------------------+
9 rows in set (0.01 sec)
嗯，一切都正常，好，下面我們要試驗我們的級聯刪除功能了。
我們將只刪除roottb表中id為2的數據記錄，看看subtb表中rootid為2的相關子紀錄是否會自動刪除：
mysql>; delete from `roottb` where `id`='2';
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.03 sec)
mysql>; select * from `roottb`;
+----+------------------+
| id | data |
+----+------------------+
| 1 | test root line 1 |
| 3 | test root line 3 |
+----+------------------+
2 rows in set (0.00 sec)
mysql>; select * from `subtb`;
+----+--------+----------------------------+
| id | rootid | data |
+----+--------+----------------------------+
| 1 | 1 | test sub line 1 for root 1 |
| 2 | 1 | test sub line 2 for root 1 |
| 3 | 1 | test sub line 3 for root 1 |
| 7 | 3 | test sub line 1 for root 3 |
| 8 | 3 | test sub line 2 for root 3 |
| 9 | 3 | test sub line 3 for root 3 |
+----+--------+----------------------------+
6 rows in set (0.01 sec)
嗯，看subtb表中對應數據確實自動刪除了，測試成功。
結論：在MySQL中利用外鍵實現級聯刪除成功！
