Hmmm... I wish it was as simple as that.
I inserted the mysql_query() below

If you get a chance please take a look and advise.

You might try using $HTTP_POST_FILES rather than $_FILES -- was
necessary in my code recently.

That was it.
Many thanks Marek and others.
Checking through the command line the file was uploaded to mysql database.
However when clicking the getdata.php link - the file does not appear on the
screen.
The code is below.

Remove @'s while debugging.

The above cannot work. You cannot mix binary data with html.

register globals are off, and the variable is not validated - can

Remember... we're laughing with you, not at you. You forgot to call

So what's the output? How do you know it's not working? If you're not
getting an error, then your query is running and something is going in
the database. Are you sure the problem isn't in how you're displaying
the data?
