easy question, except for me 2 answer

[rtown]

just wondering if I am not gonna store an image in my db as a blob, and just want to store the path to the image (assuming this is a better way to work with displaying images from a db)...what variable type would I use for the path, just a varchar or text?

please don't laugh😃

😃 Varchar will work just fine, just make sure that your length is set to something like 200 so it's long enough to hold the path.

thanks for the answer and not "chuckling"...in your mind is this a good way to go about displaying images, or trying to save the images in the db (if that's even possible).

thanks again

Since I don't know of a way to save the actual picture in the database, this is the best way I know of to do things.
