   and suddenly all the content disappared and I get the error message:
 * WordPress database error: [Can’t open file: ‘wp_posts.MYI’. (errno: 145)]

 * What was in the post? Anything other than text? If you can save what you posted,
   do so and then delete the post and see if it fixes it.

 * When I go to manage posts to delete it I get “no posts found”.
 * The post included text, one picture, and a table. I’ve made numerous similar 
   posts numerous times without any problems.

 * Have you checked the database to see if the posts are there?

 * I’ve tried checking the database via phpMyAdmin on my server, but when I try 
   to look at wp_posts there all I get is a similar error message – #1016 – Can’t
   open file: ‘wp_posts.MYI’. (errno: 145)
 * Is there somewhere else I can look?
