There may be limitations regarding use of max-height.  I don't have
confidence regarding that question because I haven't tested it much.   But
there may be a way to work with what it can do.  Here is a variation of
your example that appears to work correctly, but I moved your container to
a wrapper, and changed the max-height to just height.  Then the table_div
just has height:100%.     https://jsfiddle.net/dlaliberte/Lw5h7c2y/

It even shrinks if you have fewer rows than needed to fill the height.
