in yours div you have: postion:absolute
Style elements overrride class ou ID css elements.
Divs are positionned absolutely.
Best pratcies suggest to avoid absolute postion.

Don't mix inline styles and CSS. You should separate the CSS from the actual layout.

Even though you are specifying position: relative in the CSS it is being override by the inline style and setting it to position: absolute.
