How to get Column Name With Zend DB
You could use the describeTable method
This is the correct answer, the older answers are wrong or outdated:
$cols = $table->info(Zend_Db_Table_Abstract::COLS);
Previous answer applies only to version < 2.
For current version of ZF (2.2) use:
$table = new Zend\Db\TableGateway\TableGateway('table', $Dbadapter, new Zend\Db\TableGateway\Feature\MetadataFeature());
$columns = $table->getColumns();
http://framework.zend.com/manual/2.2/en/modules/zend.db.table-gateway.html#tablegateway-features http://framework.zend.com/manual/2.2/en/modules/zend.db.metadata.html
I like this way:
$table->info('cols');
$metadata = $db->describeTable($tableName);
$columnNames = array_keys($metadata);
