Style Popups

I was just curious about how google was dealing with the flickr effect
I thought unfixable, and the solution seems hacky but actually not so
difficult to implement.
The weird display issue only appears when the user pans the map and
the popups gets partly outside the viewport. I looks like google set
the overflow of the contentDiv to 'hidden' temporarily when the map
moves.
I'll try this ASAP, and I'll also give a look at adding a new max size
parameter. I'll keep you informed.
Regards,
