[jQuery] IE 7 Issue with Tab with left: -10000px

[Ashish]

Following works strange in IE when using Jquery Tabs:

.ui-tabs-hide {
    position: absolute;
    left: -10000px;
}

When I do the above, on IE 7, the width of the pages in tabs become
huge and goes out of page on left and right both.
These tab pages have tables. And I do NOT have table width set to
100%.

It works fine on firefox and safari.

Any clues what  could be wrong?
