I am experimenting with the recently released MDL kit and trying to use the grid layout with cards and tables.
what I found was the MDL grid is not as flexible as the Bootstrap grid for nested columns (probably 'cos I don't know enough about it yet). So in my 3 column layout I use cards and tables side-by-side to present the data I have.
But unfortunately the card does not span the whole width of a column unless I apply width=100% manually. But as soon as I do it the table is not responsive and overlap with cards around in when the screen size reduces.
JSFiddle
Can anyone tell me how to get rid of this issue.

Let's see if I can help you with each problem:
First, the cards not taking up the whole column. The issue is the nested divs. If you make the column like this:
<div class="mdl-cell mdl-cell--4-col mdl-card mdl-shadow--2dp">
rather than putting the card within the column, then it will take up the whole column. See the updated JSFiddle here.
Next, for nested columns, you need to have nested grids, like this:
<main class="mdl-layout__content">
<div class="mdl-grid">
<div class="mdl-cell mdl-cell--4-col mdl-card mdl-shadow--2dp">
<div class="mdl-card__supporting-text">
<main class="mdl-layout__content">
<div class="mdl-grid">
<div class="mdl-card mdl-shadow--2dp mdl-cell mdl-cell--4-col">
See the JSFiddle here.
It sounds like you've changed your goal a bit, but hopefully you can put these two together to fix your problem.
