Title Body

Ok So I have a simple node.js / express.js / mongodb app set up here with my config as follows. var express = require('express'), mongoose = require('mongoose'); http = require('http'); var app = express(); app.configure(function(){ app.set('port', process.env.PORT || 3000); app.set('views', __dirname + '/views'); app.set('view engine', 'jade'); //middleware stack app.use(express.bodyParser()); app.use(express.methodOverride()); app.use(app.router); app.use(express.static(__dirname + "/public")); }); mongoose.connect("mongodb://localhost/hello"); The problem lies when I try to make PUT or DELETE requests. My form is this simple <form method="POST" action="/users/#{user.name}"> <input type="hidden" name="_method" value="PUT"/> </form> Now my router catches the route with the express .put() method app.put('/users/:name', function(req, res) { var b = req.body; Users.update( { name: req.user.name }, { name: b.name, age: b.age, email: b.email }, function(err) { res.redirect('/users/'+b.name); }); }) When I make the request I simply get a "Cannot PUT" or "Cannot DELETE" error. I have tried to make this same request via chomes RESTful client with the same result. I have read a topic witch has the same problem as me although following the comments the answers did not solve my problem. Questions I have looked into expressjs support for method delete and put without the methodoverride Are the PUT, D
