css generated by embedded gist doesn't make text black

Reported by Josh Nichols | August 24th, 2008 @ 06:05 PM | in 1. Next

I recently tried to embed a gist on my blog, but it ended up looking like this:

I suspected that the reason was because my PRE is styled to be white-on-black. Firebug revealed that color was being applied to other elements, but not to the ones that ended up white.

The fix is probably just to specify color: #000000; for all elements that don't already specify a color.
