I coudn't fix your code because it was getting ugly, so i remade it:

php:

function mysql_fetch_all($res) {
    $result = array();
    while ($row = mysql_fetch_row($res)) {
        $result[] = $row;
    }
    return $result;
}

function getColumnsAndData($table) {
    $table = mysql_real_escape_string($table);
    $q1 = mysql_query("show columns from $table");
    $q2 = mysql_query("select * from $table");
    return array(mysql_fetch_all($q1), mysql_fetch_all($q2));
}

list($columns, $data) = getColumnsAndData($table);
?>
