I don't know about Netscape Composer; it may have the upload-file-via-PUT
functionality. I assume since you're asking that you know it does.

Make sure .htaccess in the directory specifies that PUT is allowed, and
that httpd.conf (usually in /etc/httpd/conf/) allows .htaccess files to
have that power. Take a look at this URL for more info:

http://www.apache.org/docs/sections.html

And follow the links in the first sentence as well.

Hth. :)
