back to the point, 
Those pages are written using a lot of entities (eg. &title; etc.).
These entities are stored in a seperate file. If these entities are
translated, but the actual page is not, then what you see is precisely
that. I know it looks strange, but that's just the way it is...

If you provide no language code, we need to make assumptions. Whether
it is good practice or not, we need to do it. If you provide the
langauge code, than it is used.

No - I recieve a page in both danish and english. This is the case with
http://www.php.net/session - all general content such as headers and
warnings are in danish while the main content is in english.

I have allowed cookies for php.net and this seems to work. All previous
mentioned URLs now display english and english only.

I strongly disagree. Making assumptions about your users preferences is
bad usability, but this discussion I believe belongs elsewhere.

I know this problem is hardly a 'bug' but I didn't know where else to
write. I'm sorry if I have posted the wrong place.

BTW this is a feature, not a bug. If you have cookies turned on, the
last language you have seen is remembered, so next time, the URL
shortcuts will lead to that language (no need to select the language in
every page view).

If you would like to directly specify the language in your shortcut,
you can do so. See http://php.net/urlhowto This page also links the My
PHP.net page, which will explain you the language selection mechanism
(http://php.net/my).
