	Well, for one complication... You are asking for the very information
you are providing...

	select URL field
	where the URL field is equal to some value.

	What do you really expect from that? If the table has multiple records
with the same URL value, you will get multiple copies of the same URL.


>But this gives:
>Traceback (most recent call last):

>    urls = c.execute('SELECT URL FROM LINKS WHERE URL = ?', url).fetchall()
>sqlite3.ProgrammingError: Incorrect number of bindings supplied. The current statement uses 1, and there are 40 supplied.

	So show us the code that creates "url"...

	Though I suspect the problem is that "url" is an iterable, and the
DB-API expects the parameters to be provided IN an iterable.

	Try using 
		... where URL=?', (url,) )
to make it a tuple (an iterable) with one item inside it.
