Fixed navbar

Hi guys, I want the navigation bar to be fixed so when I can scroll down I can still see it. But it looks like the position: fixed; rule is not working...

    <header>
      <div id="heading">
        <div class="extra-border">
          <img src="img/logo.jpg" class="logo">
          <nav class="main-nav">
            <ul>
              <li>Inicio</li>
              <li>Contacto</li>
            </ul>
          </nav>
        </div>
      </div>
    </header>

#heading {
  z-index: 1;
  border-bottom-width: 5px;
  border-bottom-style: solid;
  border-bottom-color: #fff;
  box-shadow: 0px 5px 11px 2px #474a5b;
  width: 100%;
  position: relative;
}

You can use position: fixed so it stays on top even when scrolling.

Nop, its not working correctly, when I use the fixed value it pushed down my cover like 600px and if I scroll later the other images of my main content or cover overlap my main nav (#heading)

With the z-index you can prevent your images or divs to overlap your nav bar. The 600px diffrence is weird do you have a rule which targets the nav element ? Because when you set your position to fix you can assign the distances with top bottom and so on. By the way there is a header tag. For both the fixed and the header tag(http://cssreset.com/creating-fixed-headers-with-css/) :)
