You didn't say, but I'll assume you are using PHP. This was given to me by
someone on the forum:
<?php
include('common_db.inc');
// getimagedata.php3 - by Florian Dittmer <dittmer@gmx.net>
// Example php script to demonstrate the direct passing of binary data
// to the user. More infos at http://www.phpbuilder.com
// Syntax: getdata.php3?id=<id>
$id = $_GET["id"];
if($id) {
$db = db_connect();
$results = pg_query($db,"Select someimage from tblimage7");
$row = pg_fetch_array($results);
echo stripcslashes($row[0]);
}
?>

Hi
I want to make a table with one field containing graphics. How can I
display
them? I have followed 2 directions, either with some problems:
(1) in one table I used blobs, with success but how to display the figures
?
(2) in another I used a field to link to existing figures and outputting
the
query as a html file. I type something like <img
src="/home/nogueira/fig1.gif" >. But, the html file comes out without the
html tags (" <>" ) and then I have to edit the file and type the tags to
see
the figures.
Thank for your attention and any help
Eduardo

TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command
(send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to majordomo@postgresql.org)
