PUT, POST and CherryPy

I spent yesterday implementing a 'PUT' of data to the COOL database, using an xml description for the updated data. This now works fine, and today I introduced authentication. The method I implemented first used 'PUT' , since i shall only be updating existing channels, however (unfortunately) html forms always send a file with 'POST' so I have since had to allow POST too. The only way I could 'PUT' a file to a RESTful address was with cURL. I'm now making the cherrypy server produce a form from the payload description so that the data can be edited in a dynamic way.
