Answer 1

what is desc? is it the file name ? whats the data type of desc in db? INFILE?
if desc is just the name of the file, then make sure that such a file exists in the proper folder.only then the link works..
that is, if desc is 'a.jpg' then a.jpg should be existing in the same folder as your html is.
