MySQL is undoubtedly the most popular database used with PHP applications. Backup and restore a MySQL database is not always an easy task for owners of PHP sites, especially if they do not have shell access to the server machine or some other way to access the database server remotely,
This package uses several classes to provide an elegant Web interface for backup and restore MySQL databases to files.
The concern that the author had in generating compressed backup files to minimize the disk space requirements, demonstrates a certain level of maturity of this package.

This package is meant to provide backup and restore services of MySQL databases.
It provides a friendly tab based user interface that lets the users create backups of given MySQL databases to files, listing previously generated backups, restore a given backup and deleting backup files.
Currently this package requires PHP with the bzip or zlib extension enabled to generate compressed backup files. It also uses the gonxtabs class to create an user-friendly navigation menu.
Localisation support is enabled to let you configure your application with your default langage and change it, or to add a new translation.
