I need to clear a table (cache) from a database based on the database size.

Our web site uses cached pages. Our webhost only allow us 100 MB
storage. Usually the database is just 10 MB, but when a search engine
crawls our calendar, then the storage is quickly 108 MB. The system
reports then mathematically correct: Space left on database -8MB !!!

I plan therefore a web page, which is triggered by cron every hour and
will just clear the table.

Can I use just:
mysql_query("DELETE FROM cash")
or die(mysql_error());


or do I need to loop through all records? or is there a better solution?

How can I get the database size?

bye

R.
