wargame 2 (2/12/2010)

Post by Kirk »

solved wargame one. I know this one has to do not with URL manipulation but with where my poem entry is stored and how it is stored. I will go to W3schools site and read up on more PHP. Any other advice on what to look into?

Sorry juggalo, wargames are there so the users can figure out how to do these things. It's ok to give this specific answer to kirk over a PM, but new users need to get to this point themselves.

I a hint i can give you... Unlike the previous wargame, this one does not require a malformed url to complete it. It requires some other form of user input...

Kirk, Do you know how to view source code on a web page? Sometimes this can help. You can look at links, comments and other things that the web browser typically wont show. Now I am not sure if this helps on the wargame you are currently on but it sure wont hurt.

I always do this first.

I do know how to look at source. I use firebug, which is a Firefox add-on. You can also just right click the page and go to view source.

I know this one has something to do with the poem entry form. I have been reading W3schools PHP guide but still can't figure it out.

I will try to find a different way to view the source.

Kirk, viewing the source is viewing the source no matter how you do it ^_^

Instead, think about how the poetry submission form works. How, or where does it save the poems at?
