I was looking something more like a MySQL dump class or function...
this may not be as robust a solution as you require but can you not simply backtick the mysqldump command from within php?
<?php
$date = date();
$output = `mysqldump --opt --quote-names -u root --password=daword database > file_$date.dump`;
?>
or even create a shell script that does all the dumping and handling of dump files and then just execute that.
I thought of that to, but I would prefer to write some PHP code to do this (like I suggested in my previous message). That is indeed a little more robust and works on windows to.
I'm sure that there are pre-written functions on the net that do it using PHP code inside of mysqldump, so it's not necessary to chose this solution when you need a easy way out.
