An image file has to be uploaded to the server.
Which of the HTTP methods can be used in this situation?

either doPost() or doPut() and why?

both of them can be used...

just that you'll have to include 'ENCTYPE = "multipart/form-data"' in your form declaration.

The only methods supported by HTML are GET and POST, so PUT can not be used.

Ah, I was assuming that you were talking about a situation where the client is a web browser handling HTML (in which case PUT is not an option). (And it looks like Dawn was assuming the same thing, talking about a "form declaration".)

PUT can be used for this in other contexts that use HTTP (like a WebDAV client).
