              Than a SELECT * FROM and afterwards a file_put_contents()
Otherwise explain why not doing one of the following!
What do you want the output to look like? If it should look like a regular dump file, that good luck in writing your own PHP to mysql dump file converter.

              Only reason I can guess is lack of shell access

                But than a SELECT * INTO OUTFILE should work.

            I've found several PHP scripts/libraries/classes in google code. Better to remember/know what is a data base dump before to ask :)
Thanks to all.
