Display image in php - php

Question

how to display image in html by retrieving it from mysql database.
i have the following code but only text is being displayed in place of image.
How to display the image instead of the text of image.
Code:
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result))
{
//echo "<div>";
//echo "<div class=\"slide-image\">";
print $row['Image'];
//echo "</div>";
echo "<div class=\"slide-text\">";
echo $row['Head'];
echo $row['Description'];
//echo "</div>";
//echo "</div>";
}
It displays the resulting JPEG as text, which as you might imagine is very difficult to interpret.

Answer 1

You have to set the Content-Type header with PHP. If it is JPEG it will be image/jpeg. You can set it with:
header('Content-Type: image/jpeg');
Be sure to set that header before outputting any data.
update
But in your file as you are outputting image data and text data from same document you cant set its header type as multiple types.
one option would be
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result))
{
echo "<div>";
echo "<div class=\"slide-image\">";
echo "<img src='image_render.php?id=".$row['some_key_for_record']."'";
//print $row['Image']; we are moving it to an external page
echo "</div>";
echo "<div class=\"slide-text\">";
echo $row['Head'];
echo $row['Description'];
echo "</div>";
echo "</div>";
}
and in image_render.php
//code to pull data from db according to $_GET['id'];
header('Content-Type: image/jpeg');
print $row['Image'];
//no text data to be output from here

Answer 2

If you are stroing the image source(full path) in your MYSQL table then you can able to print the html img tag inside your php like a html div. You can do it by this way,
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result))
{
//echo "<div>";
//echo "<div class=\"slide-image\">";
echo '<img src='".$row['Image']."' width="100" height="100" />';
//echo "</div>";
echo "<div class=\"slide-text\">";
echo $row['Head'];
echo $row['Description'];
//echo "</div>";
//echo "</div>";
}
Note :
If you want only the image to be displayed in your web page then you can do it with header('Content-Type: image/jpeg');
