At a minimum, for current browsers, you need:
header("Content-type: image/jpeg");
before you send the JPEG out.

Actually, before you send *ANYTHING* out, but you'd break the JPEG sending
anything else out before that anyway.

If you want to support older browsers, on more platforms, you would do
well to look at another thread from yesterday where I talk about about
PATH_INFO.
