title: Get IIS6 to serve JSON files (inc. POST,GET)?
body: <p>By default, IIS6 does not serve .json (no wildcard <code>MIME</code> type).</p>
  
  <p>Therefore a 404 not found is thrown. I then add a new MIME type <code>(.json, text/plain or application/x-javascript or application/json)</code> which works fine.</p>
  
  <p>However, when you then add a new mapping <code>(Home Directory -&gt; Configuration -&gt; Add) with .json, C:\WINDOWS\system32\inetsrv\asp.dll</code>, "<code>GET,POST</code>" and try to browse to the file, you get a 404. </p>
  
  <p>If you remove the mapping and try and <code>POST or GET</code> to it, you get a <code>405</code>.</p>
  
  <p>...</p>
  
  <p>Suggestions?</p>
