    For the life of me, I can't figure out why this will NOT create a table. I've been digging and posting for 4 days and not a friggen thing has worked... CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME OUT!!!! What in the world am I missing here?
    I'm creating this for a plugin... all the code seems correct. I've gotta be missing something so simple...

    I've used global $wpdb; out of the function, I've tried ten different ways write the damn thing including using a query instead of the required_once. I've tried on a localhost with every php/mysql updated...I can't find the table at all...

    I would be very very greatful for some help here... I'm about to pull my hair out.

    Here is also a function that keeps returning "table not found"

    did you try echoing the vars to check if they're right at runtime?

    Yeah, if you are referring to: $jsa_user_name, $jsa_post_title... it echos the user's login name and post title correctly...
    Then I query on another page with:

    global $wpdb;
    $table_name = $wpdb->prefix . "jsadb";
    		foreach( $wpdb->get_results("SELECT * FROM '$table_name'") as $key => $row)
    		{
    			$my_column = $row->column_name;
    		}

    just to check and nothing shows up...so I added this to make sure the table is there:
    if($wpdb->get_var("show tables like '$table_name'") != $table_name)
    and it never finds the table...
    So I guess its not being created or I'm insert and get_results completely wrong... but per all the examples, i don't see a problem anywhere. lol, or I've stared at it so long I've over looked something.
