Sticky header/footer in a resizable container

I am trying to make the header and footer fixed at the top and bottom portion of a resizable container. However, when I resize the container the footer stays fixed and doesn't respond with its container.

Here is my code:

    <script>
      $(function() {
        $( "#resizable" ).resizable();
      });
    </script>

    <style type="text/css">
        .container {
            height: 500px;
            width: 500px;
            border: 1px solid black;
        }

        #sticky-header, #sticky-footer {
            position: relative;
            min-height: 100px!important;
            width: 100%;
            background-color: black;
        }

        #sticky-header {
            top: 0;
        }

        #main {
            min-height: 300px!important;
            width: 100%;
            overflow: scroll;
        }

        #sticky-footer {
            bottom: 0;
        }
    </style>
</head>
<body>

    <div class="container" id="resizable">
        <div id="sticky-header"></div>
        <div id="main"></div>
        <div id="sticky-footer"></div>
    </div><!-- /end container -->

</body>

not sure what you expect, but CSS on its own should do this via flex and resize : demo or snippets below

.container {
  margin: auto;
  height: 200px;
  width: 500px;
  border: 1px solid black;
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: column;
  resize: both;
  overflow: auto;
  /* to trigger resize handle */
}
#sticky-header,
#sticky-footer {
  text-align: center;
  color: white;
  background-color: black;
}
#main {
  flex: 1;
  overflow: auto;
}
<div class="container" id="resizable">
  <div id="sticky-header">height from content</div>
  <div id="main">scroll when needed</div>
  <div id="sticky-footer">height from content</div>
</div>

the same with more content 

.container {
  margin: auto;
  height: 200px;
  width: 500px;
  border: 1px solid black;
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: column;
  resize: both;
  overflow: auto;
}
#sticky-header,
#sticky-footer , nav a{
  color: white;
  background-color: black;
  text-align:center;
}
#main {
  flex: 1;
  overflow: auto;
}
<div class="container" id="resizable">
  <div id="sticky-header">
    <h1>HTML Ipsum Presents</h1>
  </div>
  <div id="main">
