I have three answers to this question    It is against user experience UX best practice to use BLOB and CLOB data types in string and retrieving binary data from an SQL database thus it is advised that you use the technique that involves storing the URL for the image  or any Binary file in the database   This URL will help the user application to retrieve and use this binary file  Second the BLOB and CLOB data types are only available to a number of SQL versions thus functions such as LOAD FILE or the datatypes themselves could miss in some versions  Third DON T USE BLOB OR CLOB  Store the URL  let the user application access the binary file from a folder in the project directory

You can try something like this    CREATE TABLE  sample   picture      idpicture  INTEGER UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO INCREMENT    caption  VARCHAR 45  NOT NULL    img  LONGBLOB NOT NULL    PRIMARY KEY  idpicture    TYPE   InnoDB    or refer to the following links for tutorials and sample  that might help you   http   forums mysql com read php 20 17671 27914  http   mrarrowhead com index php page store images mysql php php  http   www hockinson com programmer-web-designer-denver-co-usa php s 47
