    As per my knowledge cross site scripting seems very similar to phishing but it is very dangerous as compared to phishing through this a hacker hacks individual cookies and session

    ya , it is somewhat similar to phishing, and u r right it steals cookies from the client m/c. But i want to know about the actual working of this script, because i think to avoid this kind of attack one must know how this is happening.....
