<code class="command">DROP TRIGGER</code> removes an existing
trigger definition. To execute this command, the current
user must be the owner of the table for which the trigger is defined.

Do not throw an error if the trigger does not exist. A notice is issued
in this case.
</p></dd><dt><span class="term"><em class="replaceable"><code>name</code></em></span></dt><dd><p>
The name of the trigger to remove.
</p></dd><dt><span class="term"><em class="replaceable"><code>table_name</code></em></span></dt><dd><p>
The name (optionally schema-qualified) of the table for which
the trigger is defined.
</p></dd><dt><span class="term"><code class="literal">CASCADE</code></span></dt><dd><p>
Automatically drop objects that depend on the trigger,
and in turn all objects that depend on those objects
(see <a class="xref" href="ddl-depend.html" title="5.14. Dependency Tracking">Section 5.14</a>).
</p></dd><dt><span class="term"><code class="literal">RESTRICT</code></span></dt><dd><p>
Refuse to drop the trigger if any objects depend on it. This is
the default.
</p></dd></dl></div></div><div class="refsect1" id="SQL-DROPTRIGGER-EXAMPLES"><h2>Examples</h2><p>
Destroy the trigger <code class="literal">if_dist_exists</code> on the table
<code class="literal">films</code>:
</p><pre class="programlisting">
DROP TRIGGER if_dist_exists ON films;
</pre></div><div class="refsect1" id="SQL-DROPTRIGGER-COMPATIBILITY"><h2>Compatibility</h2><p>
The <code class="command">DROP TRIGGER</code> statement in
<span class="productname">PostgreSQL</span> is incompatible with the SQL
standard. In the SQL standard, trigger names are not local to
tables, so the command is simply <code class="literal">DROP TRIGGER
<em class="replaceable"><code>name</code></em></code>.
