Research direction

Start by locating the /payloads/ page and reading how its 32 classes are grouped into six categories. Add a client-side filter input and category jump links while keeping the full list visible when JavaScript is unavailable. Done when visitors can filter as they type, jump to each category, and still see the complete list without JavaScript.

Description

enhancement Website

Summary

The Payloads index lists 32 classes across 6 categories with no way to filter or jump. Finding one class means scrolling or opening the global search.

Proposal

Add a small filter input at the top of /payloads/ that narrows the list as you type, plus category jump links (Injection, Access Control, and so on). Keep it client-side and work without JavaScript by leaving the full list visible by default.

Why

It is the main entry point to the payload reference and the page grows with every new class.

Payloads index without filter

Notes

No filter input or in-page jump nav exists on the page today.
