I have this sequence of code:
$connection = new mysqli('localhost','root','','db-name');
$query = "SELECT * from users where Id = ?";
$stmt = $connection->prepare($query);
$stmt->bind_param("i",$id);
$stmt->execute();
$stmt->bind_result($this->id,$this->cols);
$stmt->fetch();
$stmt->close();
$connection->close();
The problem is that the "SELECT" might give a variable number of columns, which i retain in $this->cols. Is there any possibility to use bind_result with a variable number of parameters?...or any alternative to the solution.

if you are lucky enough to run PHP 5.3+, mysqli_get_result seems what you want.
$stmt->execute();
$result = $stmt->get_result();
$row = $result->fetch_array();
