Why do you need to store the files in a database? Can't you just keep them on the hard disk and query them with DOM? ------ Original Message ------ Received: Tue, 23 Sep 2008 03:55:25 PM CDT From: ERNESTO PENALOZA <penalozae@xxxxxxxxx> To: php-db@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Insert a xml file into a DB Hi there, I've been trying to insert (and retrieve) a xml file into a postgres DB into a BLOB field, using some nice examples downloaded from the net, but they don't seem to work. Is there a "standard" way to do this? I read about a bytea data type and run some examples, but never understood how this data type works. When I retrieve the data, all I could see was a number. What should I do with this number? How can I use it to see the xml file content.?
