Saving image to database problem

[rohith]

Hope someone can help with this question.

I have a digital camera that will be used to capture
photographs for picture ids. My question is whether I
can capture the image from a web page (aspx)and save it
to a database without first saving the file on to the
harddisk. If anyone can point me in the right direction
on where I can find out about this it would be greatly
appreciated.

Thank you in advance

The only way to get a file uploaded to an aspx page is in the form data that
you submit, which is what an input type=file control will do for you.
However, I don't know of any way to do this if the file isn't saved, unless
you get a media reader which you can insert your camera's media cards into
and treats it like a hard drive. I suppose you could write some kind of
client-side code that will fetch the picture from the camera and then create
the HTTP request, but this seems like a lot of work to me...
