Back Up database as csv file

PHP
1

Hi

I search for a sample code for back up database as csv file.

I found this code:


<?php
$host = 'localhost';
$user = 'root';
$pass = '';
$db = 'payroll';
$table = 'generate_payroll';
$file = 'export';
$link = mysql_connect($host, $user, $pass) or die("Can not connect." . mysql_error());
mysql_select_db($db) or die("Can not connect.");
$result = mysql_query("SHOW COLUMNS FROM ".$table."");
$i = 0;
if (mysql_num_rows($result) > 0) {
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
$csv_output .= $row['Field']."; ";
$i++;
}
}
$csv_output .= "\
";
$values = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM ".$table."");
while ($rowr = mysql_fetch_row($values)) {
for ($j=0;$j<$i;$j++) {
$csv_output .= $rowr[$j]."; ";
}
$csv_output .= "\
";
}
$filename = $file."_".date("Y-m-d_H-i",time());
header("Content-type: application/vnd.ms-excel");
header("Content-disposition: csv" . date("Y-m-d") . ".csv");
header( "Content-disposition: filename=".$filename.".csv");
print $csv_output;
exit;
?>

when I run this code, theres a pop up window asking if i want to open or save, when i click open or save i got an error.

I got a pop up Window Internet Explorer

Saying:
