Is your ID column set to auto_increment in mySQL? If so, I would take the field and value out of the query.

'Column count does not match' usually means the number of fields and the number of values are different.

You're missing a comma here: '$description''$keyword' and since the '' construct is a valid way of escaping single-quotes in SQL, this becomes a single string with a ' in the middle.

Also make sure you're escaping single-quotes etc when building your SQL statement. Apostrophes are common in names and company names and will cause errors if not escaped.

Hope this helps.
