This problem shouldn't have anything to do with code in your action page.
The error indicates that what you're doing in the form is the problem, not
within the action page itself - which is never actually being executed,
since your web server is returning a 405 error.
Typically, you get an error like this when you misspell a value within the
FORM's ACTION or METHOD parameter.
