Let's see Here[^]

using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts;

public partial class _Default : System.Web.UI.Page
{
SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection("Data Source=ABC-PC\\SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=Employee;Integrated Security=True");

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{

}
protected void btnSubmit_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{

try
{
FileUpload img = (FileUpload)imgUpload;
Byte[] imgByte = null;
if (img.HasFile && img.PostedFile != null)

{
//To create a PostedFile
HttpPostedFile File = imgUpload.PostedFile;
//Create byte Array with file len
imgByte = new Byte[File.ContentLength];
//force the control to load data in array
File.InputStream.Read(imgByte, 0, File.ContentLength);
}
// Insert the employee name and image into db

con.Open();
string sql = "INSERT INTO EmpDetails(empname,empimg) VALUES(@enm, @eimg) SELECT @@IDENTITY";
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(sql, con);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@enm", txtEName.Text.Trim());
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@eimg", imgByte);
int id = Convert.ToInt32(cmd.ExecuteScalar());
lblResult.Text = String.Format("Employee ID is {0}", id);

// Display the image from the database
Image1.ImageUrl = "~/ShowImage.ashx?id=" + id;
}
catch
{
lblResult.Text = "There was an error";
}
finally
{
con.Close();
}

}
protected void viewall_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection("Data Source=ABC-PC\\SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=Employee;Integrated Security=True");
string sql = "select * from Empdetails";
con.Open();

DataTable dt = new DataTable();
da.Fill(dt);
GridView1.DataSource = dt;
GridView1.DataBind();


}and here is my generic handeler showimage :-using System;
using System.Configuration;
using System.Web;
using System.IO;
using System.Data;
using System.Data.SqlClient;

public class ShowImage : IHttpHandler
{
public void ProcessRequest(HttpContext context)
{
Int32 empno;
if (context.Request.QueryString["id"] != null)
empno = Convert.ToInt32(context.Request.QueryString["id"]);
else
throw new ArgumentException("No parameter specified");

context.Response.ContentType = "image/jpeg";
Stream strm = ShowEmpImage(empno);
byte[] buffer = new byte[4096];
int byteSeq = strm.Read(buffer, 0, 4096);

while (byteSeq > 0)
{
context.Response.OutputStream.Write(buffer, 0, byteSeq);
byteSeq = strm.Read(buffer, 0, 4096);
}
//context.Response.BinaryWrite(buffer);
}

public Stream ShowEmpImage(int empno)
{
SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection("Data Source=ABC-PC\\SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=Employee;Integrated Security=True");
string sql = "SELECT empimg FROM EmpDetails WHERE empid = @ID";
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(sql,con);
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text;
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@ID", empno);
con.Open();
object img = cmd.ExecuteScalar();
try
{
return new MemoryStream((byte[])img);
}
catch
{
return null;
}
finally
{
con.Close();
}
}

public bool IsReusable
{
get
{
return false;
}
}and here is the coding part of my generic handler 2 for displaying the images on grid view :- <%@ WebHandler Language="C#" Class="Handler" %>

using System;
using System.Web;
using System.IO;
using System.Data.SqlClient;
using System.Configuration;

public class Handler : IHttpHandler {

public void ProcessRequest (HttpContext context)
{
SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection("Data Source=ABC-PC\\SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=Employee;Integrated Security=True");
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand();
cmd.CommandText = "select empid,Empname,Empimg from Empdetails where empid = @id";
cmd.CommandType = System.Data.CommandType.Text;
cmd.Connection = con;

SqlParameter imageID = new SqlParameter("@id", System.Data.SqlDbType.Int);
imageID.Value = context.Request.QueryString["id"];
cmd.Parameters.Add(imageID);
con.Open();
SqlDataReader sdr = cmd.ExecuteReader();
sdr.Read();
context.Response.BinaryWrite((byte[])sdr["Image"];
sdr.close();
con.Close();

//context.Response.ContentType = "text/plain";
//context.Response.Write("Hello World");
}

public bool IsReusable
{
get
{
return false;
}
}

}
