Hi all… This may be a noobie question but still, I need an answer 😛

What I want:  
**a php document were a user can enter their MySQL detais (host, username, password and database) and then PHP will take a SQL file and dump it into MySQL to make all the tables required.**

I know this is possible but can anyone tell me how to do it?
