David, You brought up a good point that I didn't even think of. Since the text is written out to response using a PrintWriter I would have to use some type of stream output for the images.
I created another servlet just to try and display the images. I got as far as retrieving them from the database in a DatabaseImage class and them returning them to a new servlet to display them. I get an sql error in the DatabaseImage class when I get to the return statement that says I need to be connected to the server(whatever that means). Anyway, thanks for your help. I will keep the list posted as to my progress. Calvin David Smith wrote the following on 5/17/2006 2:56 PM: > Images are separate resources from the HTML their <img..../> tag is > spec'd in.
