How is your code hiding the map tab when another tab is selected? If it's being hidden by having 'visibility' attribute set to 'hidden' then you might want to instead try setting it's 'display' attribute to 'none'.
An element with visibility set to hidden will still take up the space on the page that it takes up when it's visibility is set to visible. BUT an element with display style set to none will in effect be zero pixels square. If the map container is hidden by setting it's display style to none then you might fix your original problem.
