JavaScript is a client side language, you'll need a server side language, such as PHP, JSP, ASP, ASP.Net, etc to interact with the database. Also, just got general best practices, it is bad form to store the actual image in the database. Yes you can do it, but it's very inefficient to do so.

Thank you for reply;
if I don't want to store that actual image in DB, what to do? Is to store its director and and have actual image in a specific folder in the server side? Is this a good Idea?
