You have just white text on white background and thus the contents are not
shown. Just add "background-color:#000000;" to select style and you'll see the text.

Please mark this bug as invalid.

How can this be invalid when the background color already IS set to black. Text 
set to white. Please se code in Testcase in comment 1.

I meant that put the background color of the "<select>" item to be black:

<select style="COLOR: #FFFFFF;background-color:#000000;">
    <option> .....

You have now set only the the background color of the option elements to black,
but not the background color of the select element itself.
