I have created the folowing form's field
<select name="a" require="require">
    <option></option>
    <option value="a">AB</option>
    <option value="b">BA</option>
</select>

When I validate the form without changing the value, a tooltip is dislpay. But the tooltip is cut to the width of select.

The tooltip's width have to be calculated by the content's text.

The attached testcase worksforme as far as I can tell in Firefox 4, Firefox 5, and current tip.  This is on Mac.  Perhaps this is only happening on some platforms?

In any case, this looks like a duplicate of bug 647813.
