    Get all tables under a database in Postgre

    I need to get all database names, using SQL script only. I have tried:
    Code:
    SELECT datname FROM pg_database  WHERE datistemplate = false
    and seem to work. I got:
    Code:
    mydb1
    mydb2
    postgres
    mybd1 and mydb2 have been created by me. So far, so good. Now, I need to find all tables under every database, using SQL script only. Is it possible ?

    Is it possible to create/have a table not belonging to any database?

    Yes, make no sense, but I create 2-3 dummy databases, and I don;t know how to select them, but even so, I can create tables, which belongs to no database !!! Why ? Because, if I delete all dummy databases, the new created tables remain ...

    Yes, today I used Postgre, and don't understand how it works ...

    Sorry, Postgre is like a dark forest for me.
