delete from form_record_details where form_record_id in (select form_record_id 
from forms where form_id= 40003656)

Seems fine at 1am.

However the subquery has a typo in it - there is no form_record_id in the forms 
table

But rather than psql throwing an error...

it deletes every row in the form_record_details table

please tell me this is fixed since 8.3

This is not a bug.

I assume there is a form_record_id in the table form_record_details. As you have not used 
table prefixes or aliases, you are simply referencing the form_record_id from the 
"outer" table in the subquery.
