Does anyone know how to do a MySQL database backup using php? I have seen examples of mysqldump but they all seem to require root access or something.Thanks
Mike.

Mike,
I dont know how to do this with php, but I do it using mySQL Front. It is a great graphical front end to mySQL. (and free)

You may consider using PHPMyAdmin, which is a wonderful tool to administer a mysql database.
To install it, Tim Green has packaged an extension that will do it for you :
/go?616
But, to quote Tim, take care, this is a truly powerful tool, and gives you complete and total access to your database. It might be therefore dangerous to use, though, it should solve your problem.

Cheers guys, I use phpmyadmin for myself but I need a solution for one of my customers to ues and I don't want them to have access to the database!!.
I have tried to run mysqldump from php but I can't seem to get the syntax correct?
I'll keep at it.
Thanks
