Re: [PHP-DB] Storing 4KB jpeg images on hospital web server
explain to him that there is a perfomance hit to storing images in the db as well as causing some db bloat. You will also need to handle the output of the images differently to ensure that they show up see these example for getting info in and out of the db http://www.weberdev.com/get_example-4063.html http://www.weberdev.com/get_example-4062.html bastien From: Chetan Graham [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: php-db@lists.php.net Subject: Re: [PHP-DB] Storing 4KB jpeg images on hospital web server Date: Thu, 8 Mar 2007 12:35:08 +0300 (EAT) i do know there's no problem upload 4kb img to database but is different case for.. 1mb pic.. it always fail.

Re: [PHP-DB] Storing 4KB jpeg images on hospital web server
Yeah, do what the boss says, but I will tend agree, storing the images the database will slow it down. There is one place that holds large images and even small vids in the DB. IO over kill. They have two servers to run one database. Micah Stevens wrote: On 03/08/2007 01:35 AM, Chetan Graham wrote: Back to the Hospital website. Now the Web Boss wants to put the images in the DB.

i will just add a few what happen to me. since i build the same programing 1. sometimes the images where we wanted to upload doesn't upload right. 2. images called from db sometimes don't have match header.. like gif images but read as png?? - Original Message - From: Steven Cruz [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Micah Stevens [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: Chetan Graham [EMAIL PROTECTED]; php-db@lists.php.net Sent: Thursday, March 08, 2007 11:58 PM Subject: Re: [PHP-DB] Storing 4KB jpeg images on hospital web server Yeah, do what the boss says, but I will tend agree, storing the images the database will slow it down.

Hi to All,
There is a page on our hospitals website where a patient can look at the
choice of different doctors with their credentials, publications, hobbies,
etc.Each doctor has or will have a 3-4KB jpeg image as well.
We are using MySQL5.0.2.7 with PHP5.2.1
My question concerns the following:
The existing table's fields with one for the image:
TABLE finddoc
id-int,not null, auto inc., unsigned,
name varchar(25),
desig varchar(30),
dept varchar(20),
email varchar(50),
image varchar(6000),
qualification varchar(100),
publications longtext,
areaofinterest longtext, not null,
achievements longtext not null,
My job is to develop a page where a admin user can create and edit
existing doctor profiles. My question is about the image uploading part.
I have a feeling the one field given to me for images is quite limited.
Would it not be better to add another table with all the image info. such
as the following?
CREATE TABLE image (
image_id int(10) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,
image_type varchar(50) NOT NULL default '',
image longblob NOT NULL,
image_size bigint(20) NOT NULL default '0',
image_name varchar(255) NOT NULL default '',
image_date datetime NOT NULL default '-00-00 00:00:00',
UNIQUE KEY image_id (image_id)
);
This will give greater control of the images or better manipulation of data.
If it is recommended by you php/mysql higher souls to add a table such as
this. Then I have more questions. Or perhaps the existing table is fine.
One might guess I inherited this project.
Do you need to store the image in the database (either for security
reasons or something like replication) ?
Maybe it would be easier to store them in a folder for each doctor on
the server directly rather than in the DB.
eg create a doctor_images/{doctor_id}/ folder and upload the images
there.. then you don't have to worry about the db etc.

best sore the image on the filesystem and use that field to store the path and image name.

***Chetan writes:Actually the DB table 'finddoc' holds data for all
fields except the 'image' field. In this field, right now, it only
holds the reference to the web folder where the images are stored. All
the doctors images are in the same folder. The problem is my job is to
bring all the profiles up to the current level of doctors in the
hospital. We have close to 300 doctors right now working.
This is the reason I was thinking of actually putting the images in the
DB. However, whatever is easier and just as effective. Please let me
know if this has any bearing on your unexpected and excellent observation
of using the web server's file folders. You might want to check out the
web site as it is now. Only a small percentage of the doctors are listed
and not many photo's at all.
