Because that's the way Rails works. Many browsers don't support PUT forms, so Rails leaves the method as POST and adds a hidden field to fake what the method "really" is. Rails does the processing of that hidden field transparently, so that a POST with method "_put" will appear to the framework exactly like a real PUT.
