Cool things to inject via XSS

[packetjack at gmail.com (packetjack)]

Sounds like a sweet presentation you're giving, Adrian. I agree, the
<script>alert("XSS");</script>,is so boring.  Kudos to you for making an
interesting presentation! Is this an online presentation?  I'd love to see
it if so!  I test webapps and often can prove a site is vuln due to the
example given above, but I would like to learn some of the ways you and
others mentioned, ones that will show upper mgt what this "little vuln" is
capable of.....
