Images

[Anon]

Hi Guys,
Can anyone tell me where to find PHP scripts or articles for putting images into a MySQL database? Is this the correct way to do it or is there another way?

It is most definately not the correct way.

Instaed, store the images on disk and put only the name and location into the database.
That way you can search the database to find the image you want, and you can print a direct link the HTML, which saves you a lot of time.

Thanks for you reply, is there any tutorials or articles on this matter?

I haven't found any so far (must write one sometime) but many people have had the same problem, so if you do a bit more searching you'll find more hints and tips.
