Menu
I've created a default MVC app, and want to change the background colour of the main form. I go into the Site.css and change the following section:
body
{
background-color:Black;
font-size: .75em;
font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, Sans-Serif;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
color:White;
}
Then, when I view the Site.Master in design mode, it shows with a back background and white text. However, when I subsequently run the app, it reverts to the default colours. I can force the colour change by simply adding a style tag to the body:
<body style="background-color:Black">
And that works fine. The CSS file seems to be wired up correctly:
<head runat="server">
<title><asp:ContentPlaceHolder ID="TitleContent" runat="server" /></title>
<link href="../../Content/Site.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
</head>
What am I doing wrong / missing?

Make sure the path to your stylesheet is correct. ../../ will only work when you're two folders deep relative to the root.
<link href="<%=ResolveUrl("~/") %>Content/Site.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
