Does Javascript work in header elements?

Hi,

I created a header element with a link. And I set up a Javascript goal so my analytics software (Clicky) records clicks.

But the goal doesn't seem to get triggered.

So my question is: do I need to do anything special for javascript to be running insider a header element?

This is the code I put in the header element:

Thanks
