I am working on a function, what returns whether a table exists or not.
But it always notices:
Notice: Trying to get property of non-object [...] on line 10
in
1 function table_exists($table) {
2
3 // get the database
4 global $mysqli;
5
6 // look for tables named $table
7 $result = $mysqli->query("SHOW TABLES LIKE $table");
8
9 // if the result has more than 0 rows
10 if($result->num_rows > 0) {
11 return true;
12 } else {
13 return false;
14 }
15 }
the $mysqli var is set like this:
$mysqli = new mysqli(mysqli_host, mysqli_user, mysqli_password, mysqli_database);
How to solve that?
