Hi guys,

exactly my problem.
I wrote a backup.php script which dumps the data into a file. Then I email this file as attachment to a backup gmail id.
saved for ever!
On my system I have a batch script which executes iexplorer.exe <url of the php file>
And i have used windows scheduler to run this batch script.

Mohit
