If you try to do
$colname = OCIColumnName($stmt, $i)
AFTER you have called OCIFetchInto(...) then $colname will be empty.
If you call it BEFORE OciFetchInto everything works as it should.
This behaviour gave me a headache for a few hours...

So the correct way to do it should be:
OCIPLogon(...)
$stmt = OCIParse($query)
OCIExecute($stmt...)
for ($i=1; $i <= number of columns; $i++) {
	$colname[$i] = OCIColumnName($stmt, $i);
}
while (OCIFetchInto(....)) {
  // do smthng with the actual data
}

This is true only if you fetch all the way to the end of the result set using repeated OCIFetchInto's before calling the OCIColumnName.  It's like the cursor attributes go away once the last row is fetched.  This may be a product of Oracle's OCI routines.

this is an unexpected side-effect of my implementation of ref-cursors. please consider a cursor more-or-less "closed" after you read all the rows. if you really need it please open a change-request.
