Custom section header isn't visible

I have a tableview and I want to use a custom section header.

Instead of writing out all the code to create the section header, I added the view to my XIB file and connected it to an outlet in my view controller. I hid the view behind another view so it isn't visible and doesn't take up any room in the layout of the screen.

In my view controller, I removed the view from the layout (removeFromSuperview) and then I returned it from my viewForHeaderInSection function. I also implemented heightForHeaderInSection to make sure I get the right height.

When I run my app, what shows up is a blank space in the table where I'm expecting the header view to be. The space is the right height, but there is nothing in it. I do not understand why.

Can't really help without seeing some code.

Have you definitely wired it up correctly in the xib?
