I am a complete noob when it comes to php. I'm also a complete noob when it comes to MySQL. I do know a little of the basics, just enough to piss me off. [img src=\"style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/laugh.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":laugh:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"laugh.gif\" /] . What I'm wanting to do is make a script that makes a backup of an entire database once every week, and then the script automatically sends it to my email address. I have been told to use cronjobs, but then never got any support. I have no idea what cronjobs is, and would love to have someone help me out. Sorry if this is in the wrong place, but I wasn't sure.
