Thanks, i wondered while i was in bed do i really need to create a smaller version of the database on the development server before i upload or would it be better to just dump remotely from the live server. i want the upload to be smooth to reduce any downtime when i do the upload. So i came up with this (ignore the drop database i will change it when i reverse engineer your script)
If you see i added the tables to the dump like suggested. I will try to remove the dropping database from root now

Ok i get what your script does and have altered my script to drop the tables i want to drop rather than using show tables and dropping them all
Does that seem alright?

mysql_connect
MYSQL_CONNECT(3) 1 MYSQL_CONNECT(3)mysql_connect - Open a connection to a MySQL ServerSYNOPSIS
Warning
This extension is deprecated as of PHP 5.5.0, and will be removed in the future. Instead, the MySQLi or PDO_MySQL extension should
be used. See also MySQL: choosing an API guide and related FAQ for more information. Alternatives to this function include:
omysqli_connect(3)
o PDO::__construct
resource mysql_connect ([string $server = ini_get("mysql.default_host")], [string $username = ini_get("mysql.default_user")], [string
$password = ini_get("mysql.default_password")], [bool $new_link = false], [int $client_flags])
DESCRIPTION
Opens or reuses a connection to a MySQL server.
o $server
- The MySQL server. It can also include a port number. e.g. "hostname:port" or a path to a local socket e.g. ":/path/to/socket"
for the localhost. If the PHP directive mysql.default_host is undefined (default), then the default value is 'localhost:3306'.
In SQL safe mode, this parameter is ignored and value 'localhost:3306' is always used.
o $username
- The username. Default value is defined by mysql.default_user. In SQL safe mode, this parameter is ignored and the name of the
user that owns the server process is used.
o $password
- The password. Default value is defined by mysql.default_password. In SQL safe mode, this parameter is ignored and empty password
is used.
o $new_link
- If a second call is made to mysql_connect(3) with the same arguments, no new link will be established, but instead, the link
identifier of the already opened link will be returned. The $new_link parameter modifies this behavior and makes mysql_connect(3)
always open a new link, even if mysql_connect(3) was called before with the same parameters. In SQL safe mode, this parameter is
ignored.
o $client_flags
- The $client_flags parameter can be a combination of the following constants: 128 (enable LOAD DATA LOCAL handling),
MYSQL_CLIENT_SSL, MYSQL_CLIENT_COMPRESS, MYSQL_CLIENT_IGNORE_SPACE or MYSQL_CLIENT_INTERACTIVE. Read the section about "MySQL
client constants" for further information. In SQL safe mode, this parameter is ignored.
Returns a MySQL link identifier on success or FALSE on failure.

Example #1
mysql_connect(3) example
<?php
$link = mysql_connect('localhost', 'mysql_user', 'mysql_password');
if (!$link) {
die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
}
echo 'Connected successfully';
mysql_close($link);
?>
Example #2
mysql_connect(3) example using hostname:port syntax
<?php
// we connect to example.com and port 3307
$link = mysql_connect('example.com:3307', 'mysql_user', 'mysql_password');
if (!$link) {
die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
}
echo 'Connected successfully';
mysql_close($link);
// we connect to localhost at port 3307
$link = mysql_connect('127.0.0.1:3307', 'mysql_user', 'mysql_password');
if (!$link) {
die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
}
echo 'Connected successfully';
mysql_close($link);
?>
Example #3
mysql_connect(3) example using ":/path/to/socket" syntax
<?php
// we connect to localhost and socket e.g. /tmp/mysql.sock
// variant 1: omit localhost
$link = mysql_connect(':/tmp/mysql', 'mysql_user', 'mysql_password');
if (!$link) {
die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
}
echo 'Connected successfully';
mysql_close($link);
// variant 2: with localhost
$link = mysql_connect('localhost:/tmp/mysql.sock', 'mysql_user', 'mysql_password');
if (!$link) {
die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
}
echo 'Connected successfully';
mysql_close($link);
?>
Note
Whenever you specify "localhost" or "localhost:port" as server, the MySQL client library will override this and try to connect to a
local socket (named pipe on Windows). If you want to use TCP/IP, use "127.0.0.1" instead of "localhost". If the MySQL client library
tries to connect to the wrong local socket, you should set the correct path as "" in your PHP configuration and leave the server
field blank.
Note
The link to the server will be closed as soon as the execution of the script ends, unless it's closed earlier by explicitly calling
mysql_close(3).
Note
You can suppress the error message on failure by prepending a @ to the function name.
Note
Error "Can't create TCP/IP socket (10106)" usually means that the variables_order configure directive doesn't contain character E.
On Windows, if the environment is not copied the SYSTEMROOT environment variable won't be available and PHP will have problems load-
ing Winsock.
