Ok, i solved it, but still don't get how you can determine where poems are stored... Just guessing?

I'm going to PM you to help explain. I don't want to accidentally throw out spoilers.

Could you send me a PM about this too? I have another question about why this is like basic mission 8 and 9 but slightly different. Thanks in advance!

I eventually figured this one out with a lot of help, but I don't know why it worked. After checking the source code numerous times and comparing it to my input, I cannot see the connection.

You're welcome to PM me with what you have if you'd like. The key phrase here is storing something.

OK so, i have read every thread. I have a complete understanding of what I need to do ( well obviously I don't ). I have been placing everywhere I can. I keep getting the weirdo page.

i understand that

http://www.examplesite.com/docoolstuff. ... =filething

in the above fake url, docoolstuff.php is sort of a function and its actiing upon filething and that I can easily change filething because filething is just html. In theory ...

http://www.examplesite.com/filething.html should exist

or maybe even

http://www.examplesite.com/foldernameth ... thing.html

and to hunt for this stuffs I use DT.

I'd use it in place of well a file thing ( see what i did there?)

name=

yes?

so essentially in telling whatever docoolstuff.php function is to act on the previous directory. and if doocoolstuff.php does nothing but show it to me, then im good.

saying all this, there is a function on this mission that posts to a directory for people who want to submit poems.

I understand that I need to submit the old page, where it belongs in place of the hacked site.

Is there something about DT that I am missing? I've been on this all night. Third username too, but thats a completely different story.

If im spoilin stuff, my apologies. I feel as if I have learned DT in this mission, but something silly is holding me back and this is the only way to work it out.

Yup, that's somwhat spoilish...

Now let's see - you're apparently trying to read. Did you notice? And what about that you have to write instead?

[Arhinos]

right, but realistically, to be able to post where i want to post what i need to post, i would need to read things. find where to put it. then i would just put it there using the function that is given to post poetry. im soo close it makes me ...do something bad.



EDIT

figured it out. duh duh duh.

Hello,
So I found the original page, and I see that people are saying that some unixing is needed. I'm just confused how this would be implemented, because in basic 8 and 9 there was an input that wrote something onto a page, and so we could use that thing that starts with Server. It smells like that won't be an option here, maybe? I'm pretty sure i know what command to use, because we basically just want to move that file to where it was originally. It also sounds like I should be screwing with the php forms or something? Maybe I should be reading up on php... also maybe i should... *walks away scratching head and mumbling to self*

edit: Holy crap, duh. Thanks conscience.

You're on the wrong track, buddy. No "unixing" is needed for this challenge. You said you found the original page. Now try to find a way of using it that makes sense. It would probably fit in somewhere...

I don't understand where to put what. Can someone pm me with a hint/help please.

If I remember correctly, you first must find the old site. Then, you must look through the old site for an exploitable page
