I don't get any error message.... Can you be more specific? I'm on php3.

Well, If I use a database to store files, it means this is where I want to
store file instead of the hard drive. So I avoid to copy it from the
database to the hardrive of the web server as I cannot control if the record
got updated or not (I could use timestamps and store them on file)...

But so far in my case, the whole process does not impact the performance of
my web server compared to the bandwidth allocated to the web server...

Cheers.

Oh the other hand, would you mind please check your httpd error log files.
I've got a error : Attempting to convert unknown source type 34. Do you
know what had happened??

Moreover, is it a good way to get those image from database every time it
needs? I believe that write them to a file and retrive data from database
one time is enough.
