ComboBoxes draw their dropdowns on the _root.  If you lock the root in a
nested clip, they'll draw their dropdowns there.  This is why you're
getting z-index problems.

Second, if you're having an issue where _height is not returning the
true _height, then store the original height in a variable and use that.

Here is some pseudocode:

var originalHeight:Number = _height;

function getCurrentHeight():Number 
{
        if (_height > originalHeight && myComboBoxIsClosed) {
                return originalHeight;
        } else {
                return _height;
        }
}
