Google Translate Toggling through javascript/URL

Question

Hello,
I have added custom flags to my website which toggles google translate by refreshing the website on the following example: www.siteurl.com/#googtrans(en|fr)
Everything works fine but I just cannot seem to disable Google Translate from that point. Obviously it's possible through the added navigation but I'd like to do so by using my own british flag so I've tried stuff like #googtrans(en|en) or #googtrans(en) but that doesn't work. Any idea how to solve that problem?
I've google a lot but couldnt find anything.. :-(

Thank you very much!

I'd like to know this too. Did you figure it out?

I couldn't find anything in the help docs myself.

Here's a quick hack, though.

JavaScript

jQuery.removeCookie('googtrans', { path: 'www.baberich.de' });
jQuery.removeCookie('googtrans', { domain: '.baberich.de' });
window.document.location.href = "/";

You can just remove Google's cookies and it will get rid of the translation after a site refresh. Make sure you do not refresh with the #googletrans(en|fr)!

I am using jquery-cookie[^]

for cookie manipulation, you can use whatever, though.
