How can I display an image from SQL Server using ASP.NET?

Question

Here is my class (product.cs) where is the method to insert the image:

public static void InsertProductIMG(byte[] image, string contentType) 
{
   string cs          


        

Answer 1

You need to use a handler to do this

Read this, a very nice example

Answer 2

Create a web page that returns the image. You would select the bytes from the database (as you have already code written to insert, I think you know how to select). Once you have the bytes, you need to set the mime type and write the bytes to the response stream.

var bytesFromDatabase = getImageFromDatabase();
context.Response.ContentType = "image/jpeg";
context.Response.BinaryWrite(bytesFromDatabase);

Edit:

Just use a img tag with the cource tet to the aforementioned aspx web page. Eg:

<img src="http://www.example.com/image.aspx?id=1" alt="image" />
