Hi
I've written a little routine for backing up a large(ish) mysql database.
Basically what I want it to do is echo to the screen 'backing up table 1',
'backing up table 2' etc as it's going along. The routine runs along the
following lines
while ($i < $tables) {
echo "Backing up table $i";
opens a file here
it reads the table from the database here
writes it to a file here
closes file
}
I expected after each read/write it would output "Backing up table x" but
it reads/writes them all and then echoes all the backing up text in one go.
What am I doing wrong?
