I used "manage_afterAdd" (see OFS.SimpleItem for details):

   def manage_afterAdd(self, item, container):
        self.updateHTMLFile()


   def updateHTMLFile(self):
        """ do something 
            !!! object is now in zopetree, you have full access 
                to parents properties !!!
        """


   def PUT(self, REQUEST, RESPONSE):
        ...
        # only for FTP-updates; frist upload is automaticly 
        # managed by manage_afterAdd
        # 
        if hasattr(self, 'TIDY'):
            self.updateHTMLFile()
