I looked for this question, but I could not find it. Essentially, I have an html form and I want to let the user upload an image into a web database using JavaScript.
Is there a way to accomplish this?

Yes, use a file input element, or if you're using AJAX use FormData.
As an aside, typically once you get the file to the server, you only store the storage path in the db, the image itself is stored on disk; DB aren't particularly good at storing binary data.
