Thank you, that works, though I'm not yet sure why!
In my original version the red outline of the div .logo DID expand, but not the 
footer.
With your amendment they BOTH expand. Great. Many thanks

Try putting the height on the img tag rather than the div .logos

Hello,

I'm having a problem with a footer which will not automatically increase in 
height when a row within it is wrapped using 'flex'.
There's an example at: http://new.gigaplusargyll.co.uk

The footer contains a row of content (three divs), under which there is a div 
of logos (images). I have set the logo div to 'flex-wrap: wrap;' so that when 
the screen width is reduced the logo images form a second (or even third or 
fourth) row.

That part works as intended, but I cannot get the size of the footer (dark 
background) to expand. I've set 'overflow: visible' so the additional rows can 
be seen falling out of the footer.

[NOTE about my method]
The three content divs and the logo div are themselves flex children of the 
footer and the sizing of the content divs is set (33.33%) so the logo div HAS 
to wrap under the content. It's like that because I have an alternative layout 
where the logos form a fourth horizontal div with the logos themselves in a 
column (achieved by reducing the width of the content divs).

Googling around has shown there are (or have been) problems getting element 
WIDTH to increase with flex in column mode, but I've not seen the same for 
rows, which is what I have here.

I'm aware that there are other issues in the body of the page when the screen 
width is reduced, but it's the footer that concerns me here. Any suggestions, 
please?

Regards,

Tim Dawson
