Thanks for all reply! I just realized that this is just a simple issue
of a sql query.

Subject: [PHP] How to obtain all the fields' names of a MySQL table?
How about this...
$db = "name_of_database";
$query = "DESCRIBE table_name";
$query = mysql_db_query($db,$query);
while ($row = mysql_fetch_row($query))
{
echo "$row[0]\n";
}

Depending on what exactly you are doing you should probably use
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-list-fields.php
or
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-fetch-field.php

Why not to look into source code of PHPLIB? The class db_mysql has a
function called metadata (I think) - it does exactly that and much more.
You can copy the function only or use the class for all your db
manipulations if you wish.
