Cannot view Google Translate menu with NoScript active

I put the Google Translate menu on my page.
I can see it with Safari (no plugins)

But with my Firefox with NoScript activated - but set in the whitelist as an exception - I see only "Select Language" in the pulldown instead of a list of languages".
I'm worried that my audience (our current project is international) will have the same problem with other protective plugins.

I get "javascript void (0)" message, but I thought I was allowing Java on this page by putting the domain in whitelist.

Here's the page: http://www.alexiskrasilovsky.com/index.html

Any ideas about what is blocking the menu and how to fix it?

LOL.
There is a Flash object (check the Blocked Objects menu) that needs to be allowed.

Thanks for the reply - a good clue!
I disabled NoScript and it still didn't show.

Firefox itself had disabled it! I hadn't noticed the little symbol in the url address box next to the favicon.

My concern is that others won't notice this as well, but I'm hoping that a person used to being forced to translate webpages would have figured this out long ago.

I'd agree.

I also find it highly odd & irregular that they're requiring Flash at that point.
Perhaps suggest to them that they change their ways of doing it.
Flash is certainly not required.
