David, I'm not expert on this, but I'd bear in mind that webDav is not HTTP (as far as I know).

Also, PUT is not well supported in libUrl, and I don't think webDav is at all (Dave Cragg may be able to say more...)

As for modernity, with Amazon's S3 service, http PUT is the main method of getting stuff in, so that seems pretty 'modern' to me :)

As I understand it, if you've got Apache set up as described on one of those pages, you could have a rev cgi script that reads from stdin and writes to the right places on the server.

Best,

Mark

Thank for the links Mark - if found this:

So it seems that a more modern method would be to enable WebDav? And
probably put the WebDav directory under https?

Hope it helps,

Got a fairly basic http / interent question - how do I set up my server to
receive http "put"?

I know I can write a cgi and use "post" or "get" - but its ugly, and Ive
got
a bunch of scripts that use local url's to store things - if I switch the urls to remote ones on my server everything is nice and neat and I don't have to change any code - just the url. Anyone know what I'd have to do to
set up Apache?
