Hi
Does anyone know what is the simplest way to backup a database using the mysqldump function in php?
I have googled a lot and the codes i have found are very hard to understand and most of them does not work.
Thanx in advance for your help.

If you are allowed to use exec() then that will make it a one line script. Otherwise you can't access mysqldump directly through PHP.
