Exept for <> tags what other way can be used to test if a site is vulnerable...?

I found XSS vulnerability by injecting javascript through the sites search engine but the admin found it and fixed that. Now I use >" <script> tags etc and the engine ignores them and just continues searching...

Is there another place in the site that I can test if it is capable of XSS ?

I thought your browser automatically made those when putting < and > in the URL bar and clicking enter[also applies to PostData], and that file on the server automatically makes that < and >, so it would make no difference.

Correct me if I'm wrong..

You can't really do anything about that, unless the php script is dumping anything into a javascript already, where it would just be a case of escaping the quotes and adding a semicolon... then doing what you like!

For example, I dealt with a script that did this:

Quote:
...html stuff...
<script>
var abc = "blahblahblah {$php_variable} blah balh blah";
</script>
...html stuff...


The php variable was sanitized with simple "addslashes" so I was able to escape the the initial quotes despite the addslashes, turning it into this:

Quote:
...html stuff...
<script>
var abc = "blahblahblah "; window.location="XSS in here"; // blah balh blah";
</script>
...html stuff...

I did so using
Quote:
"; window.location="XSS in here"; //
