    Hi,

     

     

    To do your job you'll need to intercept the request when it is sent.

     

     

    Since it's a post method you'll need to check the payload of the request.

     

     

    To do so you'll need to use the HTTP::collect and HTTP::payload to do the job.

     

     

    Then you'll need to find where in the payload is located the string username=***** and the other one. to do so you should check the regexp command with the option -indices.

     

     

    To update the content you can use the command HTTP::payload replace.

     

     

    You should check the wikis and this forum for some examples.
