Dynamically resizing a cluetip in IE #9

In my cluetip I have a bit of hidden text that can be shown (JQuery's slideToggle) with a mouse click. In Chrome and Firefox, the box resizes nicely when the hidden text is revealed. In IE 8, however, the cluetip sticks to its original size.

Do you have a test case up on the web somewhere that I can take a look at?

I have tried to isolate the problem in an example, but unfortunately I cannot reproduce it. So it looks like it is more of a contextual problem; I'm guessing CSS positioning of other DOM elements cause this problem. I'm expecting to have the site with this problem up in a month or so. I'll add another comment with a link as soon as it is up.

For now, the workaround I implemented is to explicitly set the cluetip-outer's height to 100% after the slideDown. The drawback is that it doesn't shrink anymore after a slideUp.
