Render Xml from image DataType

Sorry for the cross post, but I'm stumped.

I'm trying to render the XML content that is stored as an image datatype in
the SQL Server Reporting Services database.Table Catalog, Content Colmn,
using ASP.NET (VB.NET).

These look to tbe the RDL files that get uploaded where the TYPE column = 2
in the Catalog Table.
What happens is, the xml gets rendered in IE (6.0) but is truncated at the
end because it is not well-formed. It seems most of the XML is rendered
except for a the last few lines.

Here is the error in the browser:

?//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Cannot view XML input using XSL style sheet. Please correct the error and
then click the Refresh button, or try again later.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cannot have a DOCTYPE declaration outside of a prolog. Error processing
resource 'http://sauronan.gefa.a d.ga.gov/FSTProject...

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
----------^/DIV>
<PaddingTop>2pt </PaddingTop>

?/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
Here's my code-behind:
Private Sub Button1_Click(B yVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArg s) Handles Button1.Click

Dim ImgStream As MemoryStream = New MemoryStream

Dim cn As SqlConnection = New
SqlConnection(" server=SAURONAN ;database=Repor tServer;user
id=FSTApp;passw ord='pass")

Dim rdr As SqlDataReader

Dim xName As String = ddlNme.Selected Value

Dim cmd As New SqlCommand("Get BinaryData", cn)

cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Sto redProcedure

Dim param As SqlParameter

param = cmd.Parameters. Add(New SqlParameter("@ sName", xName))

param.Direction = ParameterDirect ion.Input

cn.Open()

Dim blob() As Byte = CType(cmd.Execu teScalar(), Byte())

context.Respons e.ContentType = "text/xml"

context.Respons e.OutputStream. Write(blob, 0, blob.Length)

cn.Close()

Response.Flush( )

End Sub

Any ideas on how to get this data. I really don't care how, as long as I
have access to it.

Your problem is that somewhere there is a Doctype. If you need a
doctype to be spit out then the proper way to do this with XSL is to
use
<xsl:output doctype-public="-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
doctype-system="http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd" method="html"
version="4.01" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/>
If you have no control then you are going to have to manually search
and replace the Doctype yourself. This could be as simple as fast
forwarindg your stream by x azmount of bytes so it skips over the
Doctype.

I'm updating a record by opening a recordset, setting the fields and the updating it with objRS.Update. I need to set an image datatype to NULL. objRS("field") = NULL works for datatypes int and varchar but not for datatype image, although there is no error - the image field still contains the image! I'm using SQL server and running an UPDATE statement including image = NULL works.

Is there a way in Javascript, or perhaps in HTML, to force a browser to re-render an image on an HTML page after a round-trip between the client and the server ? In my particular case, the image is changing on the server although the URL for it remains the same, but the browser is still displaying the old image from its cache rather than the new image from its URL location.
