The error means that the directory where is handle_form.php is not configured as a CGI Path. That's why you got error 405 when a POST request is sent to handle_form.php since it isn't considered as a dynamic page.
Please add the directory where this file is located to the CGI Paths. For example, if its URL is http://yoursite/path/handle_form.php , you should add /form to the CGI Paths table.
If you install PHP as described in http://www.aprelium.com/abyssws/php.html, you won't need this step since / is added to the CGI Paths and this instructs the server to consider any script in any directory as a dynamic page.
