The POST request type is not an upload method per se, but rather one of
several methods of delivering data in a request. If you wish to upload a
file, you should either use POST to send data to a script on your
server, which reads the data and saves it, or use the PUT method with a
DAV service.
For example: You have upload.php on your server which reads the POST
contents and saves it as a file;
POST /upload.php?save-as=t.txt HTTP/1.1
Host: somehost
Content-Length: 5
Content-Type: text/plain
Hello
The script will then read your contents and save it using some
php/whatever-language method you define.
With regards,
Daniel.
