I created a new web application, which gives me a master page. I changed the foreground color and the background color of the header, and the text isn’t showing anymore. Why? Isn’t the foreground color the text color? If not – how do I control the text color?

I’m doing this in design view.

I now see that running it – the text is shown. But not when I’m in design mode. But it is shown if I don’t change the div’s (on which the text is) backcolor.

How do I see the text again?
