Description

Now the XSSRadare works well, but can only discover XSS on GET parameters.
I'm trying to add handling for POST requests, but I haven't succeeded.

For example I have tried this library:

- [https://pypi.org/project/selenium-requests/](https://pypi.org/project/selenium-requests/)

As suggested in:

- [https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5660956/is-there-any-way-to-start-with-a-post-request-using-selenium](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5660956/is-there-any-way-to-start-with-a-post-request-using-selenium)

But this doesn't work..

Have you ever tried to do this? If you know how, I can implement this for you and merge it. It would be very useful to handle POST request and not only GET.

Research direction

Start by locating XSSRadare’s existing GET-parameter discovery flow and how it uses Selenium. Review the linked selenium-requests and Selenium POST-request references, then define a reproducible POST case and verify that the scanner discovers XSS through it. Done means POST requests are handled in addition to GET parameters.
