It would appear that changing the nested <h:panelGroup/> to <h:panelGrid/> solves the problem with other markup in the popup.

(SOLVED) Doesn't appear to work if you have markup in the popup facet; e.g.,: <t:popup> <h:graphicImage url="images/icons/info.gif" styleClass="info-icon"/> <f:facet name="popup"> <h:panelGroup styleClass="popup"> <h:outputText value="blah blah blah"/> <t:htmlTag value="ul"> <t:htmlTag value="li"> <h:outputText value="bullet 1"/> </t:htmlTag> <t:htmlTag value="li"> <h:outputText value="bullet 2"/> </t:htmlTag> </t:htmlTag> </h:panelGroup> </f:facet> </t:popup> .popup { padding: 1em; border: 1px solid black; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 0.8em; color: black; } .info-icon { margin-left: 0.5em; vertical-align: middle; border: none; } Does it work for you, David, with more than just plain text?

(SOLVED) It's really nothing to do with MyFaces, Tomahawk, or even JSF for that matter. It's simply a browser thing with IE. Anyways, the solution is to use the style definition "white-space:nowrap;" for the inner text. Adding that to my stylesheet made it transparent and fixes the IE problem without sacraficing Firefox/Opera operation, although I haven't checked any of the other browsers... > > I got around the problem you describe by applying a style to > > <h:outputText/>; e.g., <h:outputText > > styleClass="popup">Description of the security role.</h:outputText> > > > > .popup { > > height: 5em; > > width: 35em; > > } > > That's assuming you know what width to use.
