<!-- Start Instructions -->
Adding lessons to WebGoat is very easy. If you have an idea that would be suitable<br>
for a new lesson, follow these few simple instructions to implement it:<br><br>
* Download the source code from <a href="http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=64424&package_id=61824">here.</a><br><br>
* Download the source code from <a href="http://code.google.com/p/webgoat/">here.</a><br><br>
* Setup framework: follow the simple instructions in "HOW TO create the WebGoat workspace.txt" that comes with the project.<br><br>
* You need to add two files for each new lesson: <br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;- YourLesson.java to org.owasp.webgoat.lessons<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;- YourLesson.html to WebContent/lesson_plans<br><br>
* YourLesson class must implement LessonAdapter and override the following methods:<br>
&nbsp;- createContent: Use the <a href="http://jakarta.apache.org/site/downloads/downloads_ecs.cgi">ECS package</a> to develop HTML presented to the user.<br>
&nbsp;- getCategory: Returns the category for which this lesson belongs (XSS, Injection flaws..etc)<br>
&nbsp;- getHints: List of hints you would like to pass on to the users to point them in the right direction.<br>
&nbsp;- getTitle: The title for your new lesson.<br>
&nbsp;- getCredits: Your name goes here.<br><br>

How to write a new WebGoat lesson
Detailed instructions for adding a lesson
All you have to do is implement the abstract methods in LessonAdapter.
Follow the outline below.
WebGoat uses the Element Construction Set from the Jakarta project.
You should read up on the API for ECS at
http://www.peerfear.org/alexandria/content/html/javadoc/ecs/HEAD/index.html.
http://jakarta.apache.org/site/downloads/downloads_ecs.cgi.
In addition you can look at the other lessons for examples of how to use the ECS.
Step 1: Set up the framework

ECS is quite powerful -- see the Encoding lesson for an example of how to use
it to create a table with rows and rows of output.

Step 3: Implement the other methods
The other methods in the LessonAdapter class help the lesson plug into the overall
WebGoat framework. They are simple and should only take a few minutes to implement.

Step 4: Build and test
Once you've implemented your new lesson, you can use ant to build and deploy
your new web application. First you want to remove the webgoat .war *AND*
the webgoat directory from your webapps directory. Then, from your webgoat
directory, type:
> ant install
This will compile your new lesson and "install" the path into Tomcat.
You only need to "install" once. If you make changes to the web application
and want to test them, you can use:
> ant reload
Once you've implemented your new lesson, you can test the lesson by
starting the Tomcat server (within Eclipse). See the
"HOW TO create the WebGoat workspace.txt" document in the WebGoat root.
