Hi John,

Just to go back and answer some of your original questions...

In order for us to translate your page, we have to parse your HTML, 
understand it, and replace text with translated text.  We also rewrite links 
so that when a user clicks a link, they get the translated version of that 
link, not back to the original language.


Glad to hear you got things more or less working, although I do notice a lot 
of resources are not loaded for your page when we render a translation for 
it.  I'm not sure why yet, but will look into it.

As for the web element widget, it should work the way you expect, except in 
Chrome right now we have a bug which is causing click-throughs to not work 
correctly.  We should have that fixed soon.

As for the Accept-language header, what are you suggestion is the expected 
behavior?  That Google's proxy would send that header when fetching the page 
with the language that the user selected as the source language?  Or 
something else?

Cheers,
Josh Estelle
