Do you see any warnings at the console when you run from the command line?

very true i didn't specify width and height because the images that
are being attached to the pdf have variable dimensions. hmm so
that's the behaviour of FOP. i actually tried changing the page size
to 40x40inches and still the image did not display... as with regards
to the command line warnings... i don't see them if there are any coz
i just access the xml file via browser say i resulted to 1234.xml file i
access it via http://FQDN:8080/cocoon/xmlfiles/1234.pdf hope this
information could further give enlightenment to this case... any other
suggestions? all the best!!!

This link has some good information about Graphics Resolution:
http://xml.apache.org/fop/graphics.html#resolution
In partciular, it indicates that if you specify a single dimension, it will proprotionately scale the image to fit. Thus, you could specify a maximum width (or height) and it would scale to that size. You just need to be sure the corresponding image dimension doesn't put the image off the page.
