grid from table does not shrink to the container

Code(simplified)

<div id="searchDIV" style="width:600px; height:50px; overflow=scroll;">
<table id="some_table" height="200">
<tr>
<td>Header A</td><td>Header B</td>
</tr>

<?php
$i=0;
while (i<55)
{
echo "<tr><td>";
echo $i;
echo "<td></tr>";
}


?>

</table>

</div>


<script>
var mygrid = dhtmlXGridFromTable("some_table");
</script>

...

when populating the table although the scrollbars show they exceeds way past the height of the div. I think I tried everything and I am stuck,

Thanks a lot

When grid initialized from table - it takes the same sizes as original table.
You can
a) provide fixed sizes
    <table id="some_table" height="200" gridHeight="50px">
or
b) force grid autosizing
    var mygrid = dhtmlXGridFromTable("some_table");
    mygrid.enableAutoHeight(true,"auto");
    mygrid.setSizes();
