Faking web page option? - Developers

Well, I would like to know, how can you fake the strings you send on web the way you like. Like if I had to fill in a form and there were options to choose either Male or Female, but I would want to send the option Marmelade to the server. I know that possibly the server is not going to respond to any unpredicted option, but I have my own use for it and I would be very grateful for help.

Opera and Internet Explorer can do it out of the box. Opera got something called Dargonfly. And i think IE's is just called IE Developer tool

That only works with text boxes. Basically, the form where you choose male or female knows only two options, the male one being -let's say- 1 and female being 2. The "male" and "female" are only there so you know what to click, the server doesn't receive them in that exact string. It only receives 1 if you're male and 2 if you're female. Won't accept anything else.

Firebug should let you edit the page to post.

[editline]11:04PM[/editline] Holy butterballs - I hacked my first page On that private Wow server, you are able to choose if your account is liable to play either just the basic Wow, or the datadisc TBC. There is HTML form to modify that option. The joke is that the server is now testing the second datadisc - third option, but it's not available choice for normal players. By simply sending value of 2 instead of normally available values 0 and 1, I changed my account to be liable to play on the second datadisc. I know it's harmless and insignificant thing, but it means a lot for me.

If the field had an ID aswell as a Name, you could just play with some javascript... (Enter it in the address bar, etc..)

SQL injecting wont sent you to jail, just dont deface it with your address whilst you use an vpn and your set. Oh and don't root the box's, thats bad.

Firebug and tamperdata.
