Product database, IMG+TEXT to DB

[Alpha_One]

Hi!

I've been trying to build a product catalog with PHP / MySQL.

I want to add products to the database containing some text fields and a picture.

I've tried to combine image to MySQL with a few lines more for product name and so on but i get problems with the output.

Can anyone give me some tips how do do this? I want a pure and very easy script. The images stored in the DB seems to be the biggest problem.

Best regards -Marcus

Storing images in a db is a complete waste of time. Store the image files in a directory and just store the path/filename in the db. There was an article floating around here somewhere that explains exactly why.

I was afraid that was the right thing to do.
