$_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] will/should contain the request type.
Documented as ...
"Which request method was used to access the page; i.e. 'GET', 'HEAD',
'POST', 'PUT'.
Note: PHP script is terminated after sending headers (it means after
producing any output without output buffering) if the request method
was HEAD."
