IF NOT EXISTS - checking for table by name

[Wayne Rasmussen]

Writing a build script. I want to see if table customer exists within database wjr and if it doesn't, then create it. This is failing.

IF NOT EXISTS
(
SELECT *
FROM information_schema.tables
WHERE table_schema = 'wjr'
AND table_name = 'customer'
LIMIT 1;
)
BEGIN
CREATE TABLE customer(n int);
END

How do I do this test using the information_schema?
