**Description**  
Just after sdk js is loaded, i follow the doc by calling:  
ZoomMtg.setZoomJSLib(‘[https://source.zoom.us/2.2.0/lib](https://source.zoom.us/2.2.0/lib)’, ‘/av’);  
ZoomMtg.preLoadWasm();  
ZoomMtg.prepareWebSDK();  
//then i load localization:  
ZoomMtg.i18n.load(“fr-FR”);  
ZoomMtg.i18n.reload(“fr-FR”);  
//even tried:  
ZoomMtg.reRender({lang:“fr-FR”});

//then  
ZoomMtg.init({  
success: res =\> {  
ZoomMtg.join();  
}  
});

The result is that the join page is not localized. i still get the english texts.  
After validating the join, i get the correct language in zoom UI.  
But the join page do not get proper language.  
I have the localization properly, if json language file is already loaded in browser cache. when i load page 2 times in a row.

i see on network tab that json file is properly loaded:  
[https://source.zoom.us/2.2.0/lib/lang/fr-FR.json](https://source.zoom.us/2.2.0/lib/lang/fr-FR.json)

**Browser Console Error**  
TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading ‘parentNode’)  
zoom-meeting-2.2.0.min.js?\_=1644241756367:2

**Which Web Meeting SDK version?**  
2.2.0

**Meeting SDK Code Snippets**  
Same as doc:

ZoomMtg.setZoomJSLib(‘[https://source.zoom.us/2.2.0/lib](https://source.zoom.us/2.2.0/lib)’, ‘/av’);  
ZoomMtg.preLoadWasm();  
ZoomMtg.prepareWebSDK();  
ZoomMtg.i18n.load(“fr-FR”);  
ZoomMtg.i18n.reload(“fr-FR”);  
ZoomMtg.reRender({lang:langCodeZoom});  
ZoomMtg.init({  
success: res =\> {  
ZoomMtg.join();  
}  
});
