No no no, what you want to do is echo $row[0], not <img src=$row[0]>.
$row[0] is the actual jpeg data, and the browser will interpret it like that
since you put the header("Content-type: text/jpeg");

Try echoing $row[0] only and tell me how that goes.

Subject: [PHP-DB] Still trying to get image from /tmp path


Thanks, David.  That helped a little but now what I get is:
<img src=/tmp/phpMVWr5Z> in the output.

The tmp folder is up the directory tree outside of my www folder (on my
web host's 'puter)- I don't have direct access to it.

Heres the modified code:

  $sql=mysql_query("SELECT bin_data FROM binary_data WHERE id=4");
  $row = mysql_fetch_array($sql);
  header("Content-type: image/jpeg");
  echo "<img src=$row[0]>";

How can I use the path stored in the db to retrieve the image?
