Although I've never worked with PUT/DELETE requests, here are my thoughts. 1) According to the manual, file_get_contents only allows URL's as filenames if "fopen wrappers" are enabled. Make sure that this is the case (have a look at the settings in your php ini file). Do you get any data when changing 'file_get_contents' to e.g. (as found here: http://php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.put-method.php)? <?php /* PUT data comes in on the stdin stream */ $putdata = fopen("php://input", "r"); /* Open a file for writing */ $fp = fopen("myputfile.ext", "w"); /* Read the data 1 KB at a time and write to the file */ while ($data = fread($putdata, 1024)) fwrite($fp, $data); /* Close the streams */ fclose($fp); fclose($putdata); ?> 2) Have a look in your Appache log files and make sure the client is actually making a valid PUT request. /frank
