I will have to regenerate that code to get the exact error message text but it
basically said that the parameter substitution was invalid.
A follow-up question.
Once the bytea column is populated, how best to display the content in a web
page?
I have :
byte [] imgB;
ResultSet rs = st1.executeQuery("select pic from part where pno='" + p + "'");
if(rs.next()){
imgB = rs.getBytes(1);
if (imgB != null){
out.write("Content-type: image/jpeg");
out.write("Content-length: " + (int)imgB.length);
out.write(imgB.toString());
}
}
but this does not work.
The toString() looks wrong but removing it makes the write fail.
Cheers and thanks,
Stephen
