# Clicking on Flags not working – javascript error

 * Hi, I am having an issue where clicking on the flags does not trigger the translation.
   I thought it may be similar to issues other people have had, but setting the 
   z-index higher than anything else on the site did not fix the issue.
 * In my chrome inspector, I get the following error:
 * Uncaught ReferenceError: doGoogleLanguageTranslator is not defined
 * Also: XMLHttpRequest cannot load [https://translate.googleapis.com/translate_static/css/translateelement.css](https://translate.googleapis.com/translate_static/css/translateelement.css).
   No ‘Access-Control-Allow-Origin’ header is present on the requested resource.
   Origin ‘[http://idadesal.org&#8217](http://idadesal.org&#8217); is therefore 
   not allowed access.
 * This suggests the onclick javascript is not working – could you please take a
   look at this?

 * Hi adamhideseek,
 * I apologize for the late response. Something tells me that scripts are not being
   loaded on your site, for one reason or another. As a result, the browser is throwing
   errors that it doesn’t recognize plugin functions.
 * The first step would be to check that your theme has the function, `wp_head()`
   located in the `header.php` file.
 * And also I would check and see if `wp_footer()` function is included in your `
   footer.php` file.
 * Those functions are important, as they are responsible for loading all of the
   scripts of any plugins you install. If the functions are not present, the scripts
   never get loaded.
 * Let me know if you want me to look at your site:
