GWT sinkEvents in hosted mode - gwt

Question

I extends a gwt celltable to create a custom celltable, i register the sinkevents ie onmouseover/onmouseout.
when you hover on the row of the table the row data is populated on the hover wiget(custom hover popup panel).
its works as it supose to do on development mode but once deployed on tomcat when you move the mouse over different rows on the celltable it
does not update the hover data on the popup panel unless you click away from the table(loose focus) and the hover again on the row.
public class MyCellTable<T> extends CellTable<T> {
