Click on your database name on the left hand side

Just make sure all the tables checkboxes are ticked, and then click drop on the menu below.

This was a huge help to me...thank you so much!

However, my question is this -- what if someone doesn't have phpmyadmin on their server? Is there a way to clear the tables?

You can delete tables by running the DROP TABLE command:

You can do this through a PHP (or Perl) script, or via the MySQL command line if you have access to it.
