Answer 1

You have to set a width for the parent div.
A block-level element always starts on a new line and takes up the full width available (stretches out to the left and right as far as it can).
Block-level elements
#container {
overflow-y: scroll;
max-width: 500px;
max-height: 200px;
}
table {
width: 100%;
}
<div id='container'>
<table>
