You really seem to be living in a parallel universe!
Google’s auto language detector has worked for me for Korean, Chinese, Japanese, Polish, French and Spanish. You don’t even need to the translate.google.com page. Just save one these as your bookmarks – http://translate.google.com/translate_buttons

Google’s auto-detect works like it’s supposed to!

Thanks guys. Yes there are loads of programs/sites that translate text but how do you know what the language is that you are translating from? I have tried Google’s auto detect feature and it is not very good nor does it give the % of it being correct.

i think nicetranslator.com does this as well. I like their service (no affiliation with them in any way).

For translating needs, i use qtl extension for Firefox and Writer’s Tools for OpenOffice.

I should have addressed this in the article – Yes Google has this feature but No it does not work well.

http://translate.google.com/translate_t?hl=en#auto|en|%D0%A0%D1%83%D1%81%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%B8%D0%B9%20%D1%8F%D0%B7%D1%8B%D0%BA%20Russkiy%20yazyk

I ran that russian text through the google translator, I selected detect as the language type and it returned me no translation and an assumption that it was in Albanian…

Google translator FAIL!
