Answer 1

It means that the requested URL does not accept the POST method. Try again with GET.

Answer 2

Perhaps you should try with a server that accepts POST requests. There's probably nothing wrong with your code, Google's front page just doesn't do POST.

One quick example of a server you could use I can think of is JSFiddle's echo feature. I'm sure they won't mind.
