The table seems to work fine for me. Explain what the exact problem is that you are seeing.

Text boxes can't continue to the following page. What you can do is add another text box and link them, so that text will flow from one text box to the next. But note that there is a limit to the number of linked text boxes in a document, so this will be a less flexible approach.
