Converting a Blob into an Image File in PHP

PHP provides various methods for converting BLOB data stored in a MySQL database into an image file. These methods rely on different image libraries that may already be installed on your system. Here are several options:

GD Library

';
?>

ImageMagick (iMagick) Library

readimageblob($blob);
echo 'getimageblob())  . '" />';
?>

GraphicsMagick (gMagick) Library

readimageblob($blob);
echo 'getimageblob())  . '" />';
?>

Notes:

• The echo trick used in the examples displays multiple images when iterating through a MySQL result resource. Alternatively, you can use header() to output the image directly.
• The selected method will depend on the specific image library installed on your system.
