Then I suggest you instead use the AJAX APIs. As has been pointed out
before, this will eliminate the iframe problem, the partial
translation problem, the inconsistency with the supplied markup
depending on your browser (*), and the CSS warning messages that
always show up in the FF console whenever a Google-translated page is
rendered. As well, it will eliminate minor presentation problems such
as you have encountered when your CSS presentation values clash
indirectly with the in-line embedded ones. In the long run, it will
save you a lot of grief.

Of course, if everyone uses the AJAX implementation, Google will lose
out on the suggestions from end-users for "a better translation".
Perhaps they will add this functionality to the APIs later.
(*) I am not sure why they do this. I suspect it is done in order to
support versions 5 and prior of IE.
