Yes, IE cuts off "over-the-edge" elements. It's a bug :-)
It is a tricky one since the ordinary 'hasLayout' triggers
won't allow the elements to shrink-wrap properly.
However, adding...
#topmessage {float: left;}
...will solve IE's problem without disturbing other browsers.
Sidenote: I hope you are aware of the side-effect with such an
auto-expanding element which isn't in the flow: it will flow into the
areas of other elements if there's too much content in it or the
font-size is blown up, and cover, or be covered by, them.
