Error 405 usually happens when you try to submit a POST request to a URL
that serves a static page (read HTML page or something like that), not
really a dynamically generated page, there for submitting form requests
to a static page URL does not make sense, thus the 405 error.

If you want to emulate a login form using SSL or not, you may want to
try this HTTP client class. It supports SSL request, POST form
submissions as well cookie collecting and redirection which you
eventually also need.
