Editing Making HTTP Requests (section)

== POST ==

The POST method submits data to the server in the request body. It’s used in login forms, registration, comment submission, and more.

'''Usage Example (Form Login)'''
<pre>
curl -X POST http://target.site/login \
 -H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" \
 --data "username=admin&password=admin"
</pre>

'''Usage Example (JSON)'''
<pre>
curl -X POST http://target.site/api \
 -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
 -d '{"cmd":"whoami"}'
</pre>

'''Notes'''
* Hidden parameters or roles often sent in POST
* Commonly used for SQL injection and command injection
* Some endpoints accept both GET and POST (test both)
