My advice: make an upload HTML form and upload with a browser while you
develop your script to receive POSTs. When that works, you can try uploading
arbitrary files with (lib)curl instead.
Just for the record: when sending whole files there really isn't much
difference in size or overhead when using POST vs PUT.
