I have the same problem (with simple language attribute "cs"), I have
sent feedback to the Google just now:
I have tried to include google web translator into my new website
(being developed just now), http://novy1.adamek.cz
I have Firefox 3,5 (impossible to choose this version in this feedback
form).
I have czech Windows XP, I have czech Firefox.
My website is full of czech text, there are 3 attributes language "cs"
in XHTML code (via 3 various ways), additionaly in parameter of code
of google translator is "cs" too.
But always I load page, there is immediately automatically opened
banner "Do you wish to translate this page into the Czech?". It is
annoying and making the website unusable.
I am not only webmaster, who has this problem. This problem have more
people.
Check Your discussion board:
http://groups.google.com/group/google-translate-general/browse_thread/thread/de97e857d99e4e45
How to switch off that automatic bar in the top of my page? (or, how
to explain him, that my page already IS in the Czech?)
I am looking forward to fast answer and solution of that problem,
disallowing comfortable using of sites equipped by your translator.

BTW... your automatically suggested code for including into a web site
is invalid for XHTML 1,1 , so I had to repair it for using in the my
code.
