Hi, This may seem complicated but I would like to retrive a number of images from a zip'ed/jar file where the location and image file is stored in the database. The jdbc/oracle query selects the user, returns the location of the image/photo and the image name. userid = <user_id> location = /usr/local/image archive = archive.jar image file = photo1.jpg Is it then possible to display the image in a homepage stuctured by the servlet after the image is retrived from the database if so how without storing the image in the oracle database ?
