This script I made for my now abandoned journal community system. It will grab the contents from the JS file and extract relevant details about the alert and create links back to the page. This way you can display the alerts to people who do not have JS enabled like NoScript users for instance. If I have time I may add the feature to grab any photo from the child's alert page to display along with their alert. Share code and modify as you will. PLEASE if you do so make sure to properly sanitize the external data retrieved as I did in the for() loop, will prevent attacks on your site and also prevent the likelihood that the data may break your layout (its happened before, one reason I added the cleaning).
