The core that allows content to be submitted to the site. Modules and scripts may programmatically submit nodes using the usual form API pattern.

Code

function node_delete($nid) {

  // Clear the cache before the load, so if multiple nodes are deleted, the
  // memory will not fill up with nodes (possibly) already removed.
  $node = node_load($nid, NULL, TRUE);
  if (node_access('delete', $node)) {
    db_query('DELETE FROM {node} WHERE nid = %d', $node->nid);
    db_query('DELETE FROM {node_revisions} WHERE nid = %d', $node->nid);
    db_query('DELETE FROM {node_access} WHERE nid = %d', $node->nid);

    // Call the node-specific callback (if any):
    node_invoke($node, 'delete');
    node_invoke_nodeapi($node, 'delete');

    // Clear the page and block caches.
    cache_clear_all();

    // Remove this node from the search index if needed.
    if (function_exists('search_wipe')) {
      search_wipe($node->nid, 'node');
