Duplicating a MySQL table, indices, and data

Apart from the solution above, you can use AS to make it in one line.

CREATE TABLE tbl_new AS SELECT * FROM tbl_old;

To copy with indexes and triggers do these 2 queries:

CREATE TABLE new_table LIKE old_table; 
INSERT INTO new_table SELECT * FROM old_table;

To copy just structure and data use this one:

CREATE TABLE new_table AS SELECT * FROM old_table;

I've asked this before:

Copy a MySQL table including indexes
