Quick Reapir of Corrupt Tables

I have been having problems where my visitor table is getting corrupted as well as a few other tables.

This is a relatively easy thing to fix but I do not always have access to my databases and my blog often goes down because of these errors.

Could we get a simple php file added to the install such as repair.php that is nothing more than a series of repair table commands?

If I am visiting someone or using a public terminal I do not want to log into my webserver to make the repairs and having a simple php file that I can run remotely would be helpful.

Hi!

Table corruption should not happen on a working server. Please contact your sysadmin and ask him to check why MySQL corrupts tables - there is something fishy going on.

If you definitely want ot repair your tables, you should use a tool like phpMyAdmin. Serendipity is the wrong place to carry out such administrative tasks....
