How to enable verbs for static content in IIS7

Question

this question got me halfway there:

except now my POST throws a 404 instead of a 405. If I load the page directly, it loads fine, but following a POST it 404s.

How can I enable GET and POST for static HTML files in IIS 7? I... have no idea what I'm doing. Please help!

For reference, I am deploying a static HTML mockup of a site that we are using for usability testing of the UI. One of the processes is a multi-step form wizard, so rather than rewrite the pages to not use POST even though I am not capturing/passing any data, I'd like to get the existing copy to just work. — Mathletics, Dec 09 '11 at 20:52

Awesome, this is very close to what I ended up doing, but without having to rename the files. Thanks! – Mathletics Jul 31 '12 at 13:11
Thanks! How could you get this to work with different file types in general, such as jpg? – Panzercrisis Apr 29 '15 at 16:01
I mean, it seems to have a little bit of trouble if data is saved as bytes and has non-textual characters. – Panzercrisis Apr 30 '15 at 12:38
