Sorry for the delay but my server was down for about a week Sad
It's easy as this:
1. Once you are logged in PHPMyAdmin select the database that you want to extract from the drop-down menu on the left side of the screen.
You'll get a table listing from that database.
2. In the upper menu on the right side of the screen should be "EXTRACT" tab. Click that.
2. On the final screen you will be presented with options for saving the file to your computer. Make sure that you select "Structure and data" option, select all tables and check the "Save as file" box. Here you can zip the file if you want.
That's it.
Now for restoring your database on a new server.
1. Create new database
2. Repeat step one from the previous tutorial.
Click on "SQL" tab in the menu.
3. Locate the backup file on your cumputer.
And now you can call yourself SQL master Smile
If you have any problems let me know.
I did what you said how to restore database, i installed guestbook again, and try to upload the backup i get this error
MySQL said:
"DROP DATABASE" statements are disabled.
Then i try to make a new MySQL that doesnt have the guestbook still get same error. Any ideas.
