Forms Data Controls :: Displaying Images From A Database?
Feb 3, 2010
how to display images from a database cant cant seem to find quite what im looking for.
I have a site that allows users to upload their own photos, i would like to be able to display these images, with the discription of the photo underneath or on top of the photo, on the website and allow other users to comment on the photos.
The display can be every photo in the database, later ill impliment a search to narrow it by user later.
Right now I have my database table set up to take the img path, username that uploaded the picture, time it was uploaded, and a description of the photo.
I have a sql database and want to store the image format into the database. I want to then display the image in a gridview. For the database I have entered the location of the image and not sure if this is the right thing to do. I'm not very good at this stuff so could you make it as simple as possible.
post the C# source code for uploading images to a database, and then showing it to the user?? I have tried now for 3 weeks with no luck... Maybe we should recommend to Microsoft to add a file upload html helper method to MVC 3?
I've got a treeview inside an updatepanel. Currently I'm developing on a dev server through a remote connection, when I view the page from the dev server itself, it works. The expand/collapse images display fine. When I view the page from my machine's browser (same url, same browser) it doesn't display the images.
I've added custom images using the CollapseImageUrl/ExpandImageUrl properties, again it works from the server, but not from my machine. The actual rendered html differs. The page also contains some asp:Image controls which work fine in both browsers.
I am trying to find an efficient way of displaying images (about 140x140px) in a webform. We cannot use paging, so we need to display all these images in the same webform.I noticed that facebook (and other sites) lets you display all your images in one page. For a profile qith about 1000 photos, facebook somehow downloads only enough so that the visitor can see images on the screen. Once you scroll, it seems to only download enough so that the visitor can again see something on screen. It works like a good text editor.... instead of displaying a huge file onscreen (like notepad does) and freezing, it only displays enough for the reader to see.
I know how to store and retrieve images into the sql database. My question in how do I iterate over the retrieved images to convert to a byte[] array and bind to the image control in the datalist?
I'd like to make a page that displays information from my database, but in an atypical way. Each record from my data includes an image and some information about the image. I'd like to display an array of images, each with its associated data underneath the image. I'm imagining a table with four columns and in each cell there is an image and underneath the image is information about it (name, size, author).
You can get an idea of what i'm trying to achieve by looking at this webpage:

write this post in the wrong section, if I do please don't hessitate to tell me.Now to my problem. I've been searching the internet for a way to display my images from my server to my asp.net website.The way I have it in my server (local) is that I have stored all the links to the images in the server (The images are on some other websites).Now my question is:How can i display the images on my website in asp.net? Is it even possible to display the images through a link or do i have to store the whole image in my database?If someone has some tips or links to other websites that go through I am using C# if someone is wondering.
Here's my situation. I have a table called Inspections, and another table called Images. The Images table takes the ID of the Inspections table as a foreign key, so the Images tables contains multiple images with the same foreign key value.I'd like to be able to enter an integer of the ID number from the Inspections table and have it return all the records from the Images table with the foreign key that matches this ID, and then load them into a gridview. When I tried using the .ashx Handler approach that I found at this link
in ImageAddress field i have stored physically address of my images and each project has more than one image. how could i show all images that belongs to a project in a GridView?
My database table contains the image file path which will be stored from a file upload control.The image path in the table will be like "C:ProjectsprojectnameprojectfolderFiles1_129308367798080000_images1.jpg"
I am trying to display that image through a datalist control as follows
I have been debating back and forth between using a database or the file server to store images for users. Finally when I decided to use the file server I found it difficult. What I am trying to do is give a user the option to save multiple profile pictures. I have looked all over for tutorials on how to save to the file server but could find nothing related. Essentially what I would like to do is create folders for each user and their images. I am having no luck. Does anyone have example code or links to what I am looking for?
here I can find some info on how to display data from my MSSQL database in something like old style tables (table,<tr>,<td>) becouse I used to done it like this in classic asp but i had a formula for calculating where to put tr or td and it becomed very confused, not to mention displaying gruped records like 10 on each page...I tried gridview in VisualStudio but I can not find any info how to use sql in it so I think it can not help me becouse it is to much predefined and I do not know where I can change code for it like what data source to use, sql and other important thing
I'am Developing a commercial website using vs2005 and sql 2005,where my users will download and upload wallpapers and ringtones,so my issue
I'am displaying the categories at the side,
For example
Animal Wallpapers - (20) Bollywood wallpapers - (30)
i want to display the no.of wallpapers as a count at the side of my wallpaper categories,this is my first issue, and the second is i want to display the number of downloads for each of the wallpaper and ringtones at the bottom of the wallpaper and ringtone images for example,
To start with - I'm using VS 2008/.NET 3.5 and working in a company-provided template that leaves me restricted to some/many settings that go beyond the body of the page itself. That said, I need to create a page that will display data from individual cells in a database table that, when lined up would look like a normal sentence. Based on certain criteria I would have certain sections of the sentences hide (ex. if it contains a key phrase or if it's empty).
I've seen a method in which Labels could be used to achieve this effect, where I would assign it the grid coordinates of the cell in a table, but I could never get it to work. I've been successfully connected to the table (LINQDataSource) but still have a blank canvas without this fundamental display technique as that will be all that's in it.
What I have below is currently working on my site to display information within an article. What I am wondering is that within a lot of stories I have more than one 'SchoolID' included. All of these IDs are in our database within the 'ArticleSchool' table and linked to an 'ArticleID.' The statement below is only displaying the first 'SchoolID' listed within an article. Is there a way I would be able to display every 'SchoolID' within an article to grab information from? Will it not work in a label if there are multiple values? The 'ArticleSchool' table has rows for every article and a new instance if more than one 'SchoolID' is attached.
