Re: ON DELETE trigger blocks delete from my table

I've made a test case, and setting the trigger BEFORE DELETE doesn't
delete the rows from the table (but it does execute the trigger, and it
does insert the rows in the audit table), I dont' know why :(.

Anyway, setting the trigger AFTER DELETE works ok.
