Here's a more complete PUT_factory that I use:

from Products.PythonScripts.PythonScript import PythonScript
from Products.PageTemplates.ZopePageTemplate import ZopePageTemplate
from OFS.DTMLDocument import DTMLDocument
from OFS.Image import Image
from OFS.Image import File


def PUT_factory( self, name, typ, body ):

     # Gimme a PageTemplate or a PythonScript, but never DTML!
     if typ=='text/x-python' or (body and body[0]=='#') or 
name.endswith('.py'):

         ob = PythonScript( name )

     elif typ.startswith('text') or name.endswith('.pt'):

         ob = ZopePageTemplate(name, body, content_type='text/html')

     elif typ.startswith('image/'):

         ob = Image(name, '', body, content_type=typ)

     else:

         ob = File(name, '', body, content_type=typ)

     return ob

hth,
