* You have no color with your background-color : div.contentsBox
* div.contentsBox {

o background-color : #f9f9f9;
}
You nave no _color_ (foreground color) with your background color.
What would happen if the user already had a default color of #f9f9f9 ?
-- your new background would make the text disappear against it.
In general, always set both colours together, using readable
combinations.
The W3C validator is a bit obsessed with this warning, which can be
safely ignored so long as you are setting both colours somewhere
reliable, then just changing one for small "highlights" within this.
