Actually, I have spend more time on some 'real' sign up pages...

At least this time, I was constantly laughing about the somewhat absurd combinations. But I am missing some of the harder parts, like forms not showing because they are only loaded when you disable your ad-blocker or forms working in specific browser versions only. However, that would probably make it too hard/realistic.

I love it!

PS: Just to give an example: The login form for the German Vorwerk website does not show in Firefox https://www.vorwerk.com/de/de/s/shop/login and when you opt to register, the button just disappears, but nothing else happens... And yes, you need that form to actually buy products.



That Vorwerk form works fine for me in Firefox (Nightly, with uBlock Origin).


Sounds interesting and indeed, when I take a fresh profile, the website loads just fine. So I suppose some one of my settings or some extension causes the issue.

Thanks for the hint.

Edit: I don't quite get it yet. Even starting my default profile in safe-mode (disables all extensions and themes), the page doesn't work.

The dev console shows this error:

  Failed to execute ‘postMessage’ on ‘DOMWindow’: The target origin provided (‘https://account.vorwerk.com’) does not match the recipient window’s origin (‘https://www.vorwerk.com’).
So I am pretty sure it must be some kind of configuration that is causing the issue, but so far I didn't find the related option in about:config
