For a table like this:

CREATE TABLE binary_data (
    id INT(4) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
    description CHAR(50),
    bin_data LONGBLOB,
    filename CHAR(50),
    filesize CHAR(50),
    filetype CHAR(50)
);

Here is a PHP example:

<?php
    // store.php3 - by Florian Dittmer <dittmer@gmx.net>
    // Example php script to demonstrate the storing of binary files into
    // an sql database. More information can be found at http://www.phpbuilder.com/
?>

<html>
    <head><title>Store binary data into SQL Database</title></head>

    <body>
        <?php
            // Code that will be executed if the form has been submitted:

            if ($submit) {
                // Connect to the database (you may have to adjust
                // the hostname, username or password).

                mysql_connect("localhost", "root", "password");
                mysql_select_db("binary_data");

                $data = mysql_real_escape_string(fread(fopen($form_data, "r"), filesize($form_data)));

                $result = mysql_query("INSERT INTO binary_data (description, bin_data, filename, filesize, filetype) ".
                                    "VALUES ('$form_description', '$data', '$form_data_name', '$form_data_size', '$form_data_type')");

                $id= mysql_insert_id();
                print "<p>This file has the following Database ID: <b>$id</b>";

                mysql_close();
            } else {

                // else show the form to submit new data:
        ?>
        <form method="post" action="<?php echo $PHP_SELF; ?>" enctype="multipart/form-data">
            File Description:<br>
            <input type="text" name="form_description"  size="40">
            <input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="1000000">
            <br>File to upload/store in database:<br>
            <input type="file" name="form_data"  size="40">
            <p><input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit">
        </form>

        <?php
            }
        ?>
    </body>
</html>

The question also arises how to get the data into the BLOB. You can put the data in an INSERT statement, as the PHP example shows (although you should use mysql_real_escape_string instead of addslashes). If the file exists on the database server, you can also use MySQL's LOAD_FILE

It depends on the data you wish to store. The above example uses the LONGBLOB data type, but you should be aware that there are other binary data formats:

TINYBLOB/BLOB/MEDIUMBLOB/LONGBLOB
VARBINARY
BINARY

Each has their use cases. If it is a known (short) length (e.g. packed data) often times BINARY or VARBINARY will work. They have the added benefit of being able ton index on them.

While it shouldn't be necessary, you could try base64 encoding data in and decoding it out. That means the db will just have ascii characters. It will take a bit more space and time, but any issue to do with the binary data will be eliminated.

While you haven't said what you're storing, and you may have a great reason for doing so, often the answer is 'as a filesystem reference' and the actual data is on the filesystem somewhere.

I strongly recommend against storing binary data in a relational database. Relational databases are designed to work with fixed-size data; that's where their performance strength is: remember Joel's old article on why databases are so fast? because it takes exactly 1 pointer increment to move from a record to another record. If you add BLOB data of undefined and vastly varying size, you'll screw up performance.

Instead, store files in the file system, and store file names in your database.
