Lab not marked as done, even when I copy the solution

Simon | Last updated: Jun 06, 2020 06:37PM UTC

I am attempting the lab at https://portswigger.net/web-security/cross-site-scripting/contexts/lab-onclick-event-angle-brackets-double-quotes-html-encoded-single-quotes-backslash-escaped I have submitted multiple comments where clicking on the authors name causes the alert function to be called, including the exact string in the suggested solution, but the lab is still marked as not solved. Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug? Thanks

Hi Simon, That is strange. I have just attempted this lab and was able to solve it using the payload suggested in the solution so the lab is working. Have you tried refreshing the blog page in which you added the comment?
