You changed your html code, you have id=1, and in your PHP code you are requesting img, so change <center><img src="image.php?id=1" width="200" border="1" alt=""></center> to <center><img src="image.php?img=1" width="200" border="1" alt=""></center> But i must also say, it is NOT safe to input data from ?img= directly into your database, someone could do a SQL injection right away with this code!. Then about this piece of code while ( $row = @mysql_fetch_array($result) ) { $imgid = $row["id"]; header("Content-Type: ".$encodeddata); echo $title; } I hope for you that there's only one item with this id, if not, there would come an error again, so a while loop is not needed, and second, now you don't define $encodeddata and $title anymore, try this piece of code instead of the one above: $row = @mysql_fetch_array($result); header("Content-Type: ".row['mimetype']); echo $row['filecontents']; ps.
