ASP.NET MVC got 405 error on HTTP DELETE request?

I'm trying to pass the DELETE to a URL in asp.net MVC using JavaScript but however i always got 405 Method not allow return.

is there anyway to make this work?

FYI: I've put the [AcceptVerb(HttpVerb.Delete)] attribute on my controller.

DELETE /post/delete/8

this is the request

It was frustrating to me too. It is because WebDAVModule is installed by default on IIS 7.5. By removing the module, you can get rid of this frustrating restriction. Simply, 

    <system.webServer>
    <validation validateIntegratedModeConfiguration="false"/>
    <modules runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="true">
            <remove name="WebDAVModule"/> <- add this

You should check the web.config (if using IIS7, else the IIS manager for IIS6 and below) to make sure the DELETE verb is mapped to the MCV request handler.
