I have been trying this for a long. I have a table "university" in my database which i want to export as mysql dump to my /$home/fuzkabir/public_html folder I tried in mysql >mysqldump u- username -p password `u_fuzkabir`.`university` > /$home/fuzkabir/public_html; may be there's a mistake. I just want to export data to my /$home/fuzkabir/public_html from my database. How can I do that. Plz help.
