Coincidentally I am also in the midst of writing a automater web
security scanner by using Watir, e.g. to spider all the links and
forms on a website and attempt sql injection, XSS and parameter
tampering attacks.

I have some difficulty such as tampering with parameters in drop-down
lists, checkboxes or bypassing javascript validation controls on form
fields, as watir APIs don't seem to support changes to the html
elements (apart from text field values...)

boonhoo
