Most often, when people are storing an binary file in a db, they are storing the absolute path to the file on the file system instead. So it should be as simple as extracting the file path from the database, using the copy() function to copy that file from the original file path to a location somewhere under the public_html/www/inetpub directory so it's accessible to the web server (make sure the directory, such as images, has the proper write permissions so that the script can write a file into that directory) and then generate the img tag pointing to the new file location.

Does anyone know of a good tutorial to show me how to grab these blog jpg's and display them in a browser? Thanks!
