How can I cache BLOB's in a browser?

Title says it all folks. Is there any way to cache a BLOB image on the client side once it has been pulled from the database?

I'm currently running WebServer 3.0.0 against Oracle 8i (using the PL/SQL agent) on Sun Solaris 2.6.

Code snippet follows :-

 htp.tableData( cvalue =>

            ('<IMG SRC='||OWA_UTIL.GET_OWA_SERVICE_PATH||
      'teldir.retr_img?id='||v_employee_id)||'>');

Which gets translated as :-

<IMG SRC=/owa_dba/plsql/teldir.retr_img?id=A000000008>

How can I cache this object?
