So I'm doing my driving school online, which basically works like a textbook where you read it page by page, then take a test at the end of each chapter.

The annoying and frankly condescending thing is that there's a timer at the bottom of each page that you must let run out before you go to the next page. This is insanely frustrating. At one point I read a page in about one minute, and had to wait an additional FOURTEEN before I could go to the next page.

"I will not stand for this," Said I, "For I am a computer science major".

So I used Chrome's inspect element feature to find out that the button to go to the next page calls a Javascript function, continueNextPage();
I then used the script viewing feature to find out that this function checks the boolean function "dunn". I check out THAT function and finds that it checks if vTotalTime, the amount of time I've spent on a page, is greater than a variable vTimeReq, the required time. So I used the console and typed in the line "vTimeReq=1;", making it so I only have to spend 1 second on the page. Lo and behold, the variable isn't private, it works! So now all I have to do is open the console and type "vTimeReq=1;" on every page. But wait, that's no fun. So I made a bookmark with the field "javascript:vTimeReq=1;continueNextPage();". Every time I click this bookmark it takes me right to the next page.
