ocidefinebyname() binds PHP variables for fetches of SQL-Columns. Be careful that Oracle uses ALL-UPPERCASE column-names, whereby in your select you can also write lowercase. ocidefinebyname() expects the column_name to be in uppercase. If you define a variable that doesn't exists in your select statement, no error will be given!
If you need to define an abstract datatype (LOB/ROWID/BFILE) you need to allocate it first using ocinewdescriptor(). See also the ocibindbyname() function.
