well, i have made tremendous progress on this small project thanks to all of you who have helped.....

Information:
1. i am able to upload a file as binary data to a database
2. i am able to retrieve all relevent information from the database
2.a like the name i gave the file
2.b like the size of the file
2.c like the unique identifer of the file
2.d like the type of file

But, when i pull out the binary data from the database, i get stream of information on my screen instead of the image!!!!!!

can someone help me out here:



<?php
//same connection structure to database as previous post (above)

//$faq_unique_id_r = intval( $_GET['faq_unique_id_s'] );
$image_unique_id_r = 92;


mysql_select_db($database_faqSQLconn, $faqSQLconn);
$query = "SELECT * FROM faq_image WHERE faq_image.image_unique_id  = '".$image_unique_id_r."'";


$faq_image_result = mysql_query($query, $faqSQLconn) or die("Query failed: " . mysql_error() . " Actual query: " . $query);


?>
