not sure about jpg, why don't u just convert it to gif.

JButton jbtOK = new JButton("OK");
jbtOk.setIcon(new ImageIcon("ok.gif"));
jbtOk.setPressedIcon(new ImageIcon("pressed.gif"));
jbtOk.setRolloverIcon(new ImageIcon("rollover.gif"));

[angryboy]

oh wait wait, i remember. it does work. same thing as gif.

jbtOk.setIcon(new ImageIcon("ok.jpg"));

Hello
you can use jpg and tif ,png image file on button and label directly in ur java swing aplication.However you can 't use BMp image file as tif and jpg.
the reson for problem is BMP format is not a compressed type image.

as you said tht java accepts jpg ...
but i didnt think so...i cant read binary data (i e jpg file as binary file) using file reader...do u knw y?

[makpandian]

why not ?
i think it is possiblle..
can u tell briefly?

[Thennarasu]

private void uploadphoto(String upload)throws Exception {
//upload will have absolute path
System.out.println("ok "+i);


Class.forName("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver");
System.out.println("file data "+upload);
System.out.println("After "+upload);
Connection con=DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:oracle:thin: @MT-TESTORADB:1521:ORACL","xxx", "xxx");
PreparedStatement pstmt = con.prepareStatement ("INSERT INTO temp1 VALUES (?,?)");
File fBlob=new File(upload);
FileInputStream is = new FileInputStream ( fBlob );
pstmt.setBinaryStream (1, is, (int) fBlob.length() );
pstmt.setInt(2,i);
pstmt.executeUpdate();
System.out.println("The End");
con.close();
// TODO Auto-generated method stub

}

this is my program...this accepts only gif format....
