Answer / cool_one368
The Basic Difference between PUT and POST is by using PUT
we have only limited data to be sent to the Server also it
can be shown into Browser URL if you use UserName and
Password by using PUT then the Password and UserName can
also be seen in the URL.
Where as if you will use Post then the whole data can be
Sent to the Browser without being shown.

Answer / rahul
PUT replaces the resource at the known url if it already exists, so sending the same request twice has no effect. In other words, calls to PUT are idempotent. The RFC reads like this: The fundamental difference between the POST and PUT requests is reflected in the different meaning of the Request-URI.

Answer / nidhi aggarwal
Post submits data to be processed from a page to the
server. The data is included in the body of request. It is
not visible in the browser address bar.
Whereas PUT uploads(binary/text) a representation of the
specified resource. It provides a useful alternative to FTP.
