if you use a header you can't put out any code before that! The table is not correct before that. Also you can't give out text/html and binary data in the file.

correct would be something like this:
Code:

<html>
....
<img src="your.php?picture_name=picure1" />
...


your.php
Code:

<?php
$name=mysql_real_escap_string($_GET['picture_name']);
$sql = "select * from upload WHERE `name`='$name';";
   
                 $result = mysqli_query($link,$sql) or die ("Could not access DB: " . mysqli_error());
header("content-type: image/jpeg");
echo $row['content'];
?>


(Code not tested)

hi James
thanks for the replay and correction of code, i made 2 file 1 gallery.html where i put the 1st code , but i didnt understood the significance of variable
picture_name=picture1 does u means to say i should give the database field or something or it just a variable to pass.
I made the php file withe gallery.php
and put the remaining code in it but i modified as i need array, so i put while loop and put arrry. I didnt understood from where it wil accept or get picture name, in my web site when user click on the Gallery tab it should display the pic, thats wat i want ,i cannt pass the picture_name variable any name of the pic.
so can u explain to me plz. i am nt getting it or i am making something wrong init again
i m giving the code i modified for myself, i request you to plz modify it i am really in need of this code to get sorted.
Thanks in advance
Code:


if(!$link)
   {
      die('Could not connect: ' . mysqli_error());
   }
   else
   {
         
      
            $name=mysqli_escape_string($_GET['picture_name']);
            //
            $sql = "select * from upload WHERE `name`='$name'";
   
                $result = mysqli_query($link,$sql) or die ("Could not access DB: " . mysqli_error());
            
               
            while ($row=mysqli_fetch_array($result))
            {
               header("content-type: image/jpeg");
               echo $row['content'];
               

            }
            
    }
      ?>



Another thing is in gallery.html file the Html part is properly executed but it doesnt transfer control to gallery.php.
I tried to extract from the array the other fields like size,name id. It also dont work.
thanks for the help in advance

it would be much easier if you only store the path in the db and the images themself in the file system.
But back to your code

snip
Code:

while ($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result)) {
echo '<img src="your.php?picture_name='. $row['picture_name'] .'" />';
}


snip
Code:

<?php
$name=mysql_real_escap_string($_GET['picture_name']);
$sql = "select * from upload WHERE `name`='$name';";
   
                 $result = mysqli_query($link,$sql) or die ("Could not access DB: " . mysqli_error());
header("content-type: image/jpeg");
echo $row['content'];
?>
