New Comment:
this is a PHP 3 only feature
that noone ever ported to PHP 4 ...
with 4.3 you will be able to read
the PUT data from the php://input stream
as the $PHP_PUT stuff in PHP 3 seems to
be something almost never used and as
the new streams solution is so easy to
use i think it is not worth to port the
PHP 3 feature here ...
in 4.3 you will be able to just do a
$in = fopen("php://input","rb");
$out = fopen($outfile,"wb");
while(!feof($in)) {
fwrite($out, fread($in, $bufsize));
}
fclose($in);
fclose($out);
no nead to deal with temporary files,
no disk space wasted when the script
doesn't need the PUT data, and the
approach is not limited to PUT requests
but will work with all HTTP methods
carrying content
changed to documentation problem

Just wanted to drop a note about a test I've done:
I tried a simple perl script getting the PUT file and it worked.
Calling the same script through PHP yields "no file" meaning that PHP
does something the uploaded file since the perlscript used by itself
works and then called through PHP does'nt.

If you find the temporary file variable I would be much obliged if you
could drop me a line.
BTW I was thinking would'nt it be better to have the PUT values in the
superglobal $_FILES ? Or at least in a $HTTP_PUT_FILE var.
A possible solution could be something like the following:
$HTTP_PUT_FILE['request_uri']
Path of the proposed upload like /mytest/filename.htm
$HTTP_PUT_FILE['path_translated']
The full path of the proposed upload like
/usr/home/foo/bar/public_html/mytest/filename.htm
$HTTP_PUT_FILE['size']
The size, in bytes, of the uploaded file.
$HTTP_PUT_FILE['tmp_name']
Temp name something like /tmp/hfdhjfufd8733
My only bad is that I cant program in C otherwise I would have been
there doing it already.

Current status on this is that I ignored it for a while -
I am taking a look at it again.
