Master Page content not visible in Content Page

[GoTerps88]

In Visual Studio 2008, I am not able to view the content of the master page or the content page in the designer while I am in the content page. But if I create a page not based on a master page, then I'm able to view the content of the page.

Has anyone else had this nagging problem and how did you resolve it? Thanks

I have VS2008 SP1.

I figured out the problem. I had a pound sign in the name of one of the subdirectories of the site. I moved the application to a new location and everything is fine.
