The table is very thin, it won't shrink the width responsively if it all fits into the container space.

BTW I have been resizing the window to test it.

When inspecting the first example you are putting a table inside the original table (#container). Changing your #container from a table to a div seems to resolve the issue:

Why responsive doesn't invoke on the table inside another table I don't know. Is this what you were intending?
