Assuming you are doing this in a Servlet, you should be writing the binary data to the HttpServletResponse

Something like:

ResultSet rs = st1.executeQuery("select pic from part where pno='" + p + "'");
if (rs.next())
{
byte[] image = rs.getBytes(1);
response.setContentType("image/jpeg");
response.setIntHeader("Content-length", (int)image.length);
response.getOutputStream().write(image);
}

But this is getting quite off-topic now.
