 As you say, you can have acl statements to deny post requests
 in squid.conf.

 You can not make a configuration whereby post is handled directly
 by the browser if a http proxy (SQUID) is being used
 in the proxy configuration.
 Any HTTP method will be forwarded to the proxy.

 At any time , POST requests will then be handled by the proxy,
 so denying them must dealed with using the proxy setup.
 In this case, the squid configuration file.
