Is there an easy php function to backup a database (or set of tables within a database) to another mysql installation or within the same database but to other tables?

    You can call the "mysqldump" program from PHP. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1867797/php-script-to-backup-mysql-database – Gus Sep 04 '11 at 16:45

No but you could use PHPmyAdmin or any other MySQL tool which supports export. You might also write your own.
