thanks Anthony,
but I want to browse the image directory, so I don't want to store them in the database.
cheers,
Stef

If you use the built-in upload mechanism (i.e., an "upload" type field in a db table), then files uploaded via that method can be downloaded via response.download. The welcome app includes a /default/download function to do just that. Check out http://web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/03/overview#An-image-blog.

    hello,

    maybe I'm totally on the wrong path, but this is my script for the
    moment:

    - users can upload pictures. Uploads seems to be allowed only in
    "myapp/uploads"

    - I want to show these images, but images to be shown are only
    allowed
    in "myapp/static"

    - so I have to show images from "myapp/uploads"

    I have the following controller:

    def Show_Plaatje():
         fh = open ( os.path.join ( 'applications', request.application,
    'uploads', 'images', 'pic_53.png' ), 'rb')
             data = fh.read()
         fh.close()
         return data

    And in my view:
    <img src="{{=URL('Show_Plaatje')}}"/>

    This doesn't seem to work, if I look at the resulting html-source,
    I see
    <img src="/Knutselen_Voor_Kinderen/default/Show_Plaatje">

    thanks,
    Stef
