Is there a codeigniter active record way of doing something like:
if(mysql_num_rows(mysql_query("SHOW TABLES LIKE exp_mytable"))==1)
I'm not seeing Show Tables as a method in the docs.

Neither Active Record nor DB Forge have a “SHOW TABLES” function. You’d have to just do it with query():
if ($EE->db->query('SHOW TABLES LIKE `exp_mytable`')->num_rows())

ah sweet. so there is a built in workaround for those obscure queries. Thanks Brandon. – Marc Miller Jan 16 '13 at 18:05
