Eric,
Thanks for your reply.
Yes, I am using absolute positioning. I do understand why the scrollbar is being added; I just would like to know if there is any way to avoid it, i.e. for example, forcing the browser re-calc, re-flow, etc. the page to avoid the scrollbar being displayed.
I know the scrollbar is not absolutely necessary because if I insert the following code:
directly after the <body> tag in my page, the scrollbar does NOT appear regardless of whether the tooltip is showing or hidden. The init() function performs appendChild to add the required <div> element.
It's not that big a deal to do so but I was trying to avoid inserting JavaScript code directly into my page.
