How to echo the attribute title

Question

I think this is a simple question, but can't seem to find the answer.

I have used this code and it works fine:

<?php echo $_product->getAttributeText('my_attribute'); ?>

the only thing is, it is just showing the attribute value not the title. How can I add the attribute title to this code/

Answer 1

i think this helping you ..

get attribute collection

$attribute = $_product->getResource()->getAttribute('my_attribute');

get attribute type

$attribute->getAttributeType();

get attribute Label

$attribute->getFrontendLabel();

get attribute default value

$attribute->getDefaultValue();

check if the attribute is visible

$attribute->getIsVisible();

check if the attribute is required

$attribute->getIsRequired();

get attribute value

$attributeValue = Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->load($_product->getId())->getMyAttribute();

Answer 2

This solution should give you what you need:

$attribute->getFrontendLabel();
