You say you have a table that changes how many columns it has? Please post the results of:
SHOW CREATE TABLE tbl_developent\G SHOW CREATE TABLE tbl_urldetails\G so I can see it too. :-D Actually, it sounds like you have a normalization problem. Posting those two table structures will give the list some information necessary to help you out. Thanks!
