Hi all,

I'm aware of the standard method of uploading a file via a form 'multipart/form-data' submission. That won't work for the server I'm trying to upload to, since it doesn't have CGI support. It does, however, allow HTTP PUT commands to perform file uploads. Is there any client-side method to send an HTTP PUT command without using a specialized client like cURL?

Thanks for the tips, but it just made me realize that what I want doesn't exist. Every method of performing file uploads relies on some sort of server-side CGI or requires an FTP server. I was really hoping to find a client-side (only) solution that performed file uploads via HTTP PUT.

If I decide to go through with this project, I'm probably going to hack together some code from some open-source projects to build a JAVA applet that performs HTTP PUT.

Thanks!
