navigator.language is based on the value of the Accept-Language HTTP header only since Gecko 5.0 (Firefox 5.0 / SeaMonkey 2.2) https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/DOM/window.navigator.language#Browser_compatibility Same thing for chrome/chromium, changed about a little less than 4 years ago http://src.chromium.org/viewvc/chrome?view=rev&revision=2250 So, you'd have to do user-agent (version) detection for these (or use the system language instead of the user language for older releases).
Opera, as far as I know, still gives the OS language instead of accept-language.
Closest thing in Internet Explorer is userLanguage (or browserLanguage?), and it's not really the same http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms534713.aspx http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms533542.aspx
PR #33 should do the job.
