$stid oci_parse($conn"SELECT * FROM mytab");
oci_execute($stidOCI_DESCRIBE_ONLY); // Use OCI_DESCRIBE_ONLY if not fetching rows

$ncols oci_num_fields($stid);
for (
$i 1$i <= $ncols$i++) {
    echo 
oci_field_name($stid$i) . " "

Notes

Note:

In PHP versions before 5.0.0 you must use ocicolumnscale() instead. This name still can be used, it was left as alias of oci_field_scale() for downwards compatability. This, however, is deprecated and not recommended.
