If you are serving these verbatim from the database with no other
processing, I think you should consider caching them in the file
system for much better performance.
You can do this by creating a 404 handler that checks if the requested
file could be got from the database. If it can, it writes it to the
pageroot and returns it. The next time someone requests it, AOLserver
will serve it straight from the file system.
If you upload a new version of the file to the database, that proc
should then simply delete the existing file from the pageroot.
Here's an example:

What is the best way to serve script (*.js and *.css)

a database?
I am successfully using ns_register_proc to catch and
dynamically serve html page requests.
I would also like to dynamically serve the script and
image files that are embedded in those same html files.
I've tried, for example:
ns_register_proc GET /Images/*.png serve_image
and
ns_register_proc GET /*.png serve_image
to catch requests for my .png files, but my procedure
serve_image does not get called.
What am I missing?
Thanks,
