What am I missing, because the answer seems too easy? The table view won't resize automatically unless *its* 'autoresizingMask' tells it to do so, and you haven't set that. (You did set it for the scroll view, but that's a different view -- it's the table view's parent view's parent view.)
Note that a tableView doesn't resize its columns "in response to a scrollview frame change". It resizes its columns in response to a table view frame change, and *that* only happens automatically when the autoresizingMask is set appropriately.

It's a pointless comment for me to make, I suppose, but I truly don't understand how such manual code tells you "what's happening behind the scenes". If IB (in IB-constructed NIBs) is merely setting these properties for you, nothing is happening behind the scenes -- it's all out in front of the scenery -- and if IB is doing something behind the scenes, writing code using the public API isn't going to reveal what it is.
