}
for(var lang in languages){
$('#langOutput').append('<option value = "'+lang+'">' + lang + '</option>');
}
/***** NAMED EVENTS *****/
$(document).bind('##TRANSLATE_TEXT##', function(e){

translate.text({input:input,output:output}, $('#theCode').val(), function(result){
$('#run').attr('disabled','');
$('#run').val('<== translate ==>');
$('#output').val( result );
