Collapse header; not displaying my content.

Hey guys. I'm working on a personal project and want to make a collapsing header, meaning the banner collapses when scrolling down (replacing it with the content). Here is a demo of what I mean.

http://line25.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/header-effect/final-demo/index.html

In any case. I cannot seem to find the issue as to why my content isn't showing.

Here's my code.

<html lang="en">
<head>
  <meta charset="UTF-8">
  <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/main.css">
  <link href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Arvo|Lobster+Two|Open+Sans+Condensed:300' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>

  <title>Collapsing Header Effect</title>

</head>
<body>
<div id="container">
  <header>
    <h1>This is my header</h1>
  </header>
  <div id="banner">
    <h2>This is the banner</h2>
  </div>
  <div="content">
  <p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, 
    consectetur adipisicing elit. 
    Itaque fuga dolorem, omnis.</p>
  </div>
</div>
</body>
</html>

header{
  height:100px;
  background-color:#dbdbdb;
width:100%;
z-index:10;
position:fixed;
}

#banner{
  width:100%;
  height: 500px;
  position:fixed;
  top:100px;
  background:#707070;
}

#content{
  width: 100%;
  position: relative;
  top:400px;
  background:#ebebeb;
  height:1500px;
  z-index:9;
}

Hi Armando,

First a typo,

  <div="content"> <!-- should be div id="content" -->

Then you want

#banner{
  width:100%;
  height: 500px;
  position:fixed;
  top:100px;
  background:#707070;
  z-index: 0; <!-- add this -->
}

Hope this helps.
