(The basic issue is that you do not want to bog down your database with megabytes -- or even gigabytes -- of binary data).

Thanks so much for your quick reply.

I am just curious that there is an unique method to post an image in php page.

I apologize to confuse you. I meant that I understand what you are saying. I guess what I am curious is that how many ways can we post an image on php page.

@NogDogJul 13.2006 — If you mean "display" an image ("post" has a specific meaning for web pages: a means of uploading data via the HTTP post protocol), then you'll normally just create an IMG tag as per normal HTML. The SRC attribute of that tag will likely lcontain a PHP variable which you've populated from your database.
