How to use PUT method in PHP?

[Emma.J]

Hello friends,
I have recently started doing the advanced coding in PHP programming language. I want to use the PUT method in my form so that I can store the PUT method used by the browsers. Instead of searching it on Web, I thought that posting here would be helpful, since you provide the good solutions.!! So please explain me how to use PUT method in PHP? Expecting some useful help from your side as soon as possible.!!

PHP supports the HTTP PUT method used by browsers to store files on a server. PUT requests are much simpler than a file upload using POST requests and they look like, the following example :

PUT / path / filename.html HTTP/1.1

Normally, this means that the remote client will save the following data in the file: / path / filename.html your disk.

PHP provides support for the HTTP PUT method used by some clients to store files on a server. PUT requests are much simpler than a file upload using POST requests. Which means that the remote client will save the following data in the file: / path / filename.html your disk. This is obviously not very secure to leave Apache or PHP overwrite any file in the tree. To avoid this, we must first tell the server that you want a certain PHP script to manage the application.

The coding mentioned above by the 'Warner' is not very secure to leave Apache or PHP overwrite any file in the tree. To avoid this, we must first tell the server that you want a certain PHP script to manage the application. With Apache, there is a directive to this: Script. It can be placed anywhere in the configuration file of Apache. In general, the webmasters put in <Directory> the block, or perhaps block <VirtualHost>.

I have provided you with the coding that can be helpful for saving HTTP by using the PUT files, so just take a glance on the following code :

<?php
$putdata = fopen("php://input", "r");

$fp = fopen("mydemofile.ext", "w");

while ($data = fread($putdata, 2048))
  fwrite($fp, $data);

fclose($fp);
fclose($putdata);
?>

The following is the directive Apache that you can use for loading PUT method :

Script PUT /put.php

This tells Apache to send all PUT requests for URIs that match the context in which you put this line to the put.php script. This assumes you have PHP enabled for that supports files of type. Php extension and PHP is active. The destination resource for all PUT requests to this script must be the script itself, not the name of the file the file must be downloaded.
