Div Tag Does Not Change Position According to Position Specified

I'm a student in the process of learning HTML and have been having difficulty positioning a div tag. When I try to change the position (I need it to be "position:fixed;") it doesn't move. What I've gathered from other threads is that the div tag is positioning itself relative to the body, however if it has the position set to fixed, shouldn't it be fixed?

Note: This is all messy because I am still trying to learn the language. I included the entire HTML file just in case something else is causing the error. There is no CSS file involved yet in the document.

Below is the part I am trying to get to work. Thanks in advance.

a{position:fixed;}

<div style="background:#A7DbD8;positon:absolute;left:50px;height:25px;width:500px;border:3px solid #19B3B0">
  <a href="home.html" style="left:40px">Home</a>
  <a href="portfolio.html" style="left:90px;">Portfolio</a>
  <a href="links.html" style="left:140px;">Links</a>
  <a href="contact.html" style="left:190px;">Contact</a>
</div>

body{font-fmaily:Times New Roman;}
h1,p{text-align:center;}
a{position:fixed;}

Solution

You have misspelled the word position

CODE

<div style="background:#A7DbD8;positon:absolute;left:50px;height:25px;width:500px;border:3px solid #19B3B0">

Fix to

<div style="background:#A7DbD8;position:absolute;left:50px;height:25px;width:500px;border:3px solid #19B3B0">

Are you working with some kind of an editor? If you are working with just notepad you are going to get mad with those short of tiny errors. Get yourself a decent editor...

Also, you don't need all of those menu items in fixed position, its enough that the parent element is fixed.
