Is there a way of detecting the existance of a table via a function call?
I'm trying to implement a 'saved search' feature in a search engine, and
need to query a database to see if a particular table exists without
throwing an error.  Actually, can an exception be caught somehow?  I'm
mainly doing this with PHP3, but I also need to do it via the Perl Pg.pm

Why is the alphabet in that order?  Is it because of that song?
