How to tell chrome language of your web site (as a hint to the translate bar)

Question

Hi All,

I have a web app that is in queens engrish but the chrome translate bar pops up and tells me that its in Estonian.

I have tried lang and xml:lang but the google translation bar seems to ignore these.

Note: The web application is totally Ajax and the content that causes the bar to pop up is dynamic content that can appear long after the page load. So perhaps I have to add a header to my Ajax responses??

Anyone ever had issues like this?

I know this doesn't answer your question, but you could add Estonian as one of your preferred languages, then Chrome wouldn't offer to translate it for you.

This google language detection code might help you identify where the problem is.
