Fit image in container not working

Hello, this is my code which I included bootstrap and I am trying to change the image of my logo in style.css using #logo img {height:100%} however when I inspect the element the height is auto which probably means something overwrites it but I cannot seem to get where the problem is, here is my head and part of the code where I have included the logo img, I have put style.css at the end of the head so it should be working.

So this is the head

<head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge"> <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/normalize.css"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.6/css/bootstrap.min.css" integrity="sha384-1q8mTJOASx8j1Au+a5WDVnPi2lkFfwwEAa8hDDdjZlpLegxhjVME1fgjWPGmkzs7" crossorigin="anonymous"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.5.0/css/font-awesome.min.css"> <link href='https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans:400,700,400italic,800' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'> <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/style.css"> <title>DSM Services Ltd</title> </head>

and this is my header nav

<header class="container"> <div class="navbar navbar-default navbar-fixedtop" role="navigation"> <div class="navbarheader"> <button type="button" class="navbar-toggle" data-toggle="collapse" data-target=".navbar-collapse"> <span class="sr-only">Toggle navigation</span> <span class="icon-bar"></span> <span class="icon-bar"></span> <span class="icon-bar"></span> </button> <a class="navbar-brand" href="index.html"> <img alt="Logo" src="img/logoedit3.png" class="img-responsive"> </a> <div class="navbar-collapse collapse"> <ul class="nav navbar-nav navbar-right"> <li><a href="index.html" class="active"> Home </a></li> <li><a href="about.html">About</a></li> <li class="dropdown"><a href="services.html" class="dropdown-toggle" data-toggle="dropdown">Services</a> <ul class="dropdown-menu"> <li><a href="Destruction">Destruction</a></li> <li><a href="Demolition">Demolition</a></li> </ul> </li> <li><a href="safety.html">Safety</a></li> <li><a href="employers.html">Employers</a></li> <li><a href="employees.html">Employees</a></li> <li><a href="contact.html">Contact us</a></li> </ul> </div> </div> </div> </header>

I suppose navbrand height property is auto but it should change when i include #logo img {height:100%} in style.css document right?

Its probably something obvious but I cannot see it.

Thank you

You didn't provide your CSS file but based on your notes you are targeting the logo with #logo img but you haven't set an id of "logo" anywhere in the document.

I suggest you target .navbar-brand img instead.
