I have a table but I dont know what the columns are except for 1 column. There is only 1 permanent data value for each row, the rest of the columns are added and removed elsewhere. This isnt a problem for the query, i just do:
SELECT * FROM table
but for the php function bind_result() i need to give it variables for each column, which i do not know.
I think that once I have the columns in an array, I can do anther query and use call_user_func_array to bind the result to the array.
This seems like it would come up a lot so im wondering is there a standard way of doing this?
