You can't display the image that way due to differeing headers in required
for html and images. Change your image code to call a page that specializes
in handling the images and the headers needed by changing to something like
this:

echo "<img src=\"show_image.php?id=".$rows['id']."\">\n";

where the show_image page calls the image out from the db and display it as
below

<?php
require("conn.php");
//check to see if the id is passed
if(isset($_GET['id'])) {
    $id=$_GET['id'];

    //query the database to get the image and the filetype
    $query = "select bin_data, filetype from binary_data where id=$id";

    $result = mysql_query($query);
    $row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
      {
       $data = $row['bin_data'];
       $type = $row['filetype'];
      }
      if ($type=="pjpeg") $type = "jpeg";   //handle the ms jpeg alternate
format
      Header( "Content-type: $type");
      echo $data;
}
?>
