Hello Peter,
I noticed another reply, but I think that what you want is this....
You could build a servlet that does the following:
Register Servlet as e.g. http://someserver/somepath/
When a request is made to it (e.g. http://someserver/somepath/gifname.gif),
the servlet can find out what the 'gifname.gif' is.
Servlet changes the response MIME type (check this, as I am not completely
sure)
Servlet accesses database accordingly and pushes stream of content of gif
(stored as BLOB?) to the output stream.
The client will think that it is looking at a real file.
The user will think that they are looking at a real file.
Only you know the difference.
I hope this helps
Miles Chaston
