You can write your own script and use a directive like "Script PUT /cgi-bin/script.cgi". There are various security concerns involved that need to be resolved before we can include any worthwhile PUT handler. The easiest solution is to just tell Netscape to use ftp (you know, the way things have worked for years and years...) to upload pages. Instead of giving it http://whatever to upload to, give it ftp://host/full/path >Unformatted:
