Inserting and Retrieving Images From Database Using Servlets and JSP

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.
 
 
We’ll be using the same database that has been used in the previous article.
 
Our screenshot will be like the following.
 
Form 
 
The following is the source code for it.
