PHP Mail/Function Question

[centenial]

Hi,

I have a PHP function called 'database_backup()' that makes a complete backup of a MySQL database. Every time I run the php file I want it to email me the backup. I tried doing it like this:

[code]
$my_message = database_backup();

mail($my_email, $my_subject, $my_message, $my_headers);
[/code]

But that didn't work - How can I include the contents of a function in an email message?

Thanks,

Can you show what database_backup() does?

Orio.

Thanks, but I figured it out.
