How do I tell if I really have Javascript enabled?

[AmyR7]

When trying to get into a chatroom, it keeps saying I don't have Javascript on.

But if I click on Tools, Options, and then under Content is where I find that there is a checkmark next to Enable Javascript and also Enable Java also has a checkmark to.

I know I have difficulties with vocabulary words. So, am I misunderstanding what the definition of Enable means?

Thanks,
Amy

Don't mix up JavaScript with Kava. Usually chatrooms will use Java.....

Have you tried clearing the cache and trying again?

[AmyR7]

yeah, but try not to really clear the cache and all if not necessary because of other issues we keep running into each time we do that.
Problems with getting back into my accounts. It says the passwords are wrong.
We have read things like this:
"
Please note: Dial-up users SHOULD NOT attempt to clear their cache as it may create complications when trying to log back into Webkinz World."

Which we keep trying to understand, what exactly does clearing the cache do other than clearing the cache? Is it somehow also changing information?

See Item 2 here. Clearing the cache doesn't change information. It deletes stored  information to make room for new more relevant information. It does delete some stored passwords but if you know your passwords that shouldn't be a problem.

rather then clearing the cache you could try using "Control-F5" to reload a page. Control-F5 will refresh the page but will not use any cached images or page content.

Seems like with all electronics out there, sometimes weird unexplained things happen that can't nobody seems to have an answer as to what is causing the problems.
The reason we think the password being changed is due to clearing the cache is because of a couple of reasons:
1. It was working just a few seconds ago before clearing the cache. Seems to happen everytime we do clear the cache. The passwords are written down right in front of us, so isn't due to forgetting it. 
2. Because of this that we read "Please note: Dial-up users SHOULD NOT attempt to clear their cache as it may create complications when trying to log back into Webkinz World."
Why does it say stuff like this? That is what we are trying to understand, what problems then does clearing the cache cause if it's not somehow changing the password?

evidently the "webkinz world" uses something other then a mere password for sign-on.
