This maybe somewhat of a silly question. Scenario - I am pretty much a noob at both relational databases and web programming. I've built most of my pages using a RAD tool that, for the most part, does a decent job , if you keep it fairly simple.
One of the limitations is inserts & updates are done on a "one form on one page into one table" basis. There is a MtM feature. Anyway, now I'm flying solo and have created a form that spans 5 pages and will insert into (I lost count) I believe 3-5 tables. I want to make sure I make provisions for rollback. All but one table is innodb. While Im reading and digging around, wondering is this a massive insert statement ? Would joins need to be involved ? I'm imagining it's more of a step by step (1 table at a time) process. With rollback, if an insertion is already done into 1 table , and the insert into table 2 fails, does that mean table 1's insertion would be deleted ? I think that is probably enough and I apologize for asking what are basic questions and a bit scattered at that.
