Hello Pete, Thankyou for the reply!
The main DIVs i use in all my infowindows have specific widths / heights that work if displayed out of an infowindow. Setting the main div's overflow property to hidden has no effect on what i am describing. In the example you referred to, try resizing your browser to a rather small total height, then open the infowindow. It will have a vertical scroll bar. This does not happen on maps.google.com. ... any ideas?
