I am hosting a HTML file in Sybase 10 and it works so far good. I want now to add img Tag in my HTML but it doesnt work, because img Tag expects a relative path to the img as "src". Now the question is, what is the current folder for my webservice? I tried the path of dbsrv10.exe but without success "C:\Program Files (x86)\SQL Anywhere 10\win32" The script in DB looks something like: create PROCEDURE hello_world( ) RESULT (html_doc long varchar) BEGIN CALL dbo.sa_set_http_header( 'Content-Type', 'text/html' ); select '<!DOCTYPE html>\n' || '<html lang="en">\n' || '<body>\n' || 'hello world || '<imgg srcc="010.jpg">\n' || '</body>\n' || '</html>\n'; END; create SERVICE hello_world TYPE 'RAW' AUTHORIZATION OFF USER DBA AS CALL hello_world; |

Hi Sarkis, maybe this sample helps: https://www.db-tecknowledgy.info/fileshare/public/SQLAnyIcon.SQL HTH Thank you all. I found a good solution using IIS, so I added a virtual directory in IIS and then used the full URL in my HTML to access each photo from this virtual directory. Something like: <imgg srcc="http://my_ip/my_directory/111.jpg"> I write imgg instead of img and srcc instead of src in order to avoid HTML interpreting on this page.

One possible solution was for example to share the folder containing the image and then use "file://computername/folder/010.jpg".
So something like: "<<imgg srcc="file://computername/temp/010.jpg">>"
you should create a service that will return the images from DB using the provided URL. On high-level, just create an HTTP procedure that listens: /prefix/***

and when you see a request that has: /prefix/image.jpg, you can read the JPG file from your table and return as a binary data.
URLs starting from file:// -- are local URLs. The browser will try to find the image from the user's computer.
Do you mean that I should read the images from its path and save it in DB? And then the Webservice takes the image from DB and returns it as a response? This causes me a big problem with DB-Size!!
Anyway, could you please tell me how can I read a jpg file and save it in DB-Table as binary?
Well, the web service could also return an image file from a directory which is accessable from the database server. You can use xp_read_file() to read the file contents as blob - if you store it within a SQL variable (or a table column), be sure to use a varbinary type.
Whether you choose to store images in the database or in a file directory is up to you.
FWIW, the SQL Anywhere samples include several web service samples, among others - I guess also for v10:
Thanks for the answer, is great to have a way to read the jpg files from disk and include it then in my HTTP response. In this way I can avoid using IIS which is very system independent.
Only I couldnt open the links/attachments in your last comment (I see only plain text with gray background)
It is no link, just a snippet from the reame.txt file of the SQL Anywhere 12\Samples\SQLAnywhere\HTTP\ samples directory. I think your install should include the same files (probably in a different version).
