Question

I’m currently creating a web service that receives files(images) and some other data.

The problem is how can PHP ‘handle’ it? I’ve read some articles saying i should use PUT method. How do you read it? http://input? POST? FILES?

From Reference

<?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);
?>
