Why are you putting HTML content in the header block? Try putting it after
the \r\n\r\n that terminates the header. Also, you want to get the content
length value correct. If that still doesn't work, you could try POST instead
of PUT (except you already implied that PUT works correctly on this Apache
server with netcat).
