Description
Description
I'm having some issues with IE7 and dijit.ContentPane inside a TabContainer: The content pane shows a horizontal scrollbar although there is no need for that.
Steps to reproduce the issue
Run the attached testcase with IE9. Press F12 so as to open the debug console. Change browser mode to IE7. Reload the page. Notice: Tab "My first tab" has no scrollbar. Change to the tab "My second tab" and back to "My first tab". For some unknown reason, "My First tab" has a horizontal scrollbar now.
Affected browsers
IE7 (tested via IE9's IE7 mode only)
Discussion
I use conditional style sheets so as to hide the horizontal bar for IE7. But I do also use dojox.scrollIntoView for the pane. If scrollIntoView is performed, the pane starts to move horizontically. Therefore it is apperent for the user that the content pane is bigger than actually needed.
All in all a minor issue, but an issue, users will notice first since the application behaves strangely.

avoids the problem by removing intermediate ContentPane?

Bill, thank you very much for looking into this! I'll give the workaround a try. IE7 is really a pain sometimes...
Looks like an IE bug, and not sure how to fix it. But you can workaround it by eliminating that redundant ContentPane. See the workaround file I attached.
A more complicated workaround would probably be to setup a resize() method on your custom widget.
