We have Simplified Chinese language pages that we wish to serve only to our

Or put differently, I want zh* language-tags (from:
http://www.iana.org/assignments/language-tags) to receive English pages and
only zh-CN to receive our Simplified Chinese pages.
I did try the fallback as well, but the plain "zh" tag among others would
still default to Chinese pages for some reason -- even with the:
"ForceLanguagePriority Prefer Fallback" option. If I try the 'zh-sg' tag it
defaults to the zh-CH page.
My theory fell along the same lines as the other problem, where it falls
back to the shortest letter code, zh and then picks the first alphabetical
choice zh-CH and it never gets to the last step in the apache content
negotiation where language priority would take effect.
I am unsure if there is a workaround, but this seems like it might have a
simple fix similar to what you suggested. I have been unable to figure it
out thus far and would appreciate any additional help.
The fallback to main language tags is described here:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/content-negotiation.html#better
There is no way to turn off that behavior.
You could use mod_setenvif or mod_rewrite to set the prefer-language
env variable to en in these cases.
