Webkinz dollar store stuffed animals
This is going to a bit a bit of an odd post but recently I bought a webkinz for my daughter. When the thing arrived I was a bit disappointed. They darn thing was a dollar store stuffed animal that cost $20.00 Just the same though with it came use of this website for webkinz where the kids are supposed to be able to go and create and play with their webkinz in a virtual world.
That is all great. She likes to play the games and all but most often it is not even possible to log into the website. Today my daughter had tried a few times to log in and play but was unable to since the website uses javascript for literally everything and something was changed in their code so now when you log in and get to the screen you are after it is a JavaScript popup that is not resizable and is to small to see what is on the screen.
After she tried again with the same thing resulting I asked if I could have a look. I tried clicking the login button on the main page and sure enough it is broken. So I then decide to put my mouse over the login link to see where it goes. javascript:pW(‘loadReturnUser’); Is what is in place of the link. So I then do a view source on the page to find out what it is that the function pW and the value loadReturnUser does. I find a few included JavaScripts in the head of the page. Oddly name location I may add. They call their JavaScripts directory assets. Interesting just the same but anyway I go and open up 2 JavaScript files. The first was not it then the second had the function in it. This function makes a link for a few browser types including the loadReturnUser into the link.
So I go and copy the url that this function assembles and then enter it into the address bar then change the +page+
