This article is just an extension to my previous article that stores images or data using swing components. In this article we are using the same thing but the way of doing is different. We will be using Servlets and JSP to store and retrieve images from a database. If you haven’t gone through my previous article then kindly have a look at it.
Inserting Image in Database using Java
We’ll be using the same database that has been used in the previous article.
Our screen shot will be like the following.
![Form]()
The following is the source code for it.
