I know this may be obvious, but i didn’t set the background to any color in IB. My code for the UITableView is this:

-(UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
    static NSString *cellID = @"Cell Identifier";
    UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:cellID];

    if(!cell)
    {
        cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleSubtitle reuseIdentifier:cellID];
    }

    cell.textLabel.text = [_listeDesChapitres objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
    cell.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];

    return cell;
}

What I get is this:

Table view cells have black background

The cell background is black by default, until I click it to see its text. Am i missing something?

    You need to set the background of the label, and the background of the cell:

    cell.textLabel.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
    cell.contentView.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
