well, i think the one way is run the same SQL scripts that you used in localhost (if you created your database using queries) on your production environment. I am not sure whether MySQL has something which SQL Server has which is an ability to generate SQL scripts from physical tables.

OR, the other way is take a backup of your database in localhost and then restore it on live using that backup file. See if this helps: MySQL Backup and Restore[^]

Cheers....
