Re: Dumping Tables from MySQL

Many thanks Don Have a look at my wonderful script :) to use mysqldump to get yourself an email attachment of a complete database dump. It's a very helpful script, if you put it on debug mode it checks all sorts of things about mysqldump, like the accessability, it finds the path (on unix/linux) and it gives helpful comment. All support text is inside the file. http://www.hieris.info/over/backup/backup.php.txt Pick out what you need. I would like to get a copy of what you do with it. In case it turns out you do not have access to mysqldump i have made a hack on PHPmyAdmin to make it email the database as an atachment at a mouseclick. Chris Hayes
