note 31861 added to function.mysql-list-tables

okay everybody, the fastest, most accurate, safest method: function mysql_table_exists($table, $link) { $exists = mysql_query("SELECT 1 FROM $table LIMIT 0", $link); if ($exists) return true; return false; } Note the "LIMIT 0", I mean come on, people, can't get much faster than that! :) As far as a query goes, this does absolutely nothing. But it has the ability to fail if the table doesnt exist, and that's all you need! -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-list-tables.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+31861 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+31861 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+31861
