hi
what i am trying to do is get all the collums of a table (the table can be empty)
example of what i did before:
SELECT COLUMN_NAME FROM
INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
WHERE table_name = 'aTable'
AND table_schema = 'theDatabase'
it works perfectly on localhost however on my provider it gives:
#1142 - SELECT command denied to user 'username'@'localhost' for table 'COLUMNS'
is there an alternative that doesn't use the INFORMATION_SCHEMA??
