putting media files in mysql table

[mr_badger]

is it possible to have media files in a mysql table like a flash file. What I want is to have an mp3 play on a different page and was thinking of creating an mp3 player in flash and then storing it in a mysql table and then calling it from there, can this be done or is there an easier way of doing what I want?

 

thanks for any help.

You can always have a BLOB field, and store any binary data in it. But, I've always found it easier to keep the media as a file, and just put the filename in the database.

Thanks for the reply, I was thinking that I could just put the filename in the database. I will try this out.
