Ken ..
You have to replace
exec("mysqldump -u\"$sqlusername\" -p\"$sqlpassword\" \"$sqldatabase\" >
$backupdir/$nam.sql");
With this
exec("mysqldump -u \"$sqlusername\" --password=\"$sqlpassword\"
\"$sqldatabase\" > $backupdir/$nam.sql");
Please not the space after -u
And i agree owen about
2. $backupdir MUST BE writeable by apache
IT HAS TO WORK MAN !!

Okay here is the new code and this is still not working.
<?php
require("./config.php");
$sqlserver = $server1;
$sqlusername = $username1;
$sqlpassword = $password1;
$sqldatabase = $database1;
//******************************
$nam_bak=date('D,d-m-Y');
exec("mysqldump -u\"$sqlusername\" -p\"$sqlpassword\" \"$sqldatabase\" >
$backupdir/$nam.sql");
exec("gzip $backupdir/$nam.sql");
?>
