is there a way to drop all the tables and data with phpmyadmin instead of choosing each one seperately and dropping them....I think I saw somewhere where you could check each one off but I'm not sure

Why not just type:

DROP table <tablename>;
DROP table <tablename>;
DROP table <tablename>;
DROP table <tablename>;
DROP table <tablename>;
DROP table <tablename>;

hehehe

I made a script, here's the code:
PHP: 
<html><body>
<?php
$db_con = mysql_connect("localhost", "root", "password");
$DB = 'The DB you want to empty';

/*****Don't edit after here*****/
mysql_select_db($DB);
$tables = mysql_list_tables($DB);
while (list($bla)=mysql_fetch_array($tables))
{
  echo "Dropping table $bla...";
  if(!mysql_query("DROP TABLE $bla"))
  {echo "ERROR<br>\n";}else{echo "OK<br>\n";}
}
?>
</body></html>
With an easy if statement, you can even use it to only delete table with a special name (eg, all that start with 'nuke_')
