can't display asp:menu, control not showing in runtime

Question

I have a strange problem. I added a asp:menu control to my .master page. Also added some items and subitem on it. But, I dont know why, I can see the control at design time, but I can't find it in runtime. The visible property is set to true. The control is missing even when looking in the source code.

here is the code

 <%@ Master Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="CMSFirst.master.cs" Inherits="CMSFirst.CMSFirst" %>

 <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

  <body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server">

 <asp:ContentPlaceHolder ID="ContentPlaceHolder2" runat="server">
                <asp:Menu ID="Menu2" runat="server">
                    <Items>
                        <asp:MenuItem Text="Članki" Value="Nov"></asp:MenuItem>
                        <asp:MenuItem Text="Nastavitve" Value="Nastavitve">
                            <asp:MenuItem Text="Pisava" Value="Pisava"></asp:MenuItem>

                    </Items>
                </asp:Menu>
            </asp:ContentPlaceHolder>


<table border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0">
    <tr>
        <td>
            <img src="Images/logo.jpg" alt="CMSFirst" />
        </td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
        <td>
              <asp:ContentPlaceHolder ID="ContentPlaceHolder1" runat="server">
                <asp:Menu ID="Menu1" runat="server">
                    <Items>
                        <asp:MenuItem Text="Članki" Value="Nov"></asp:MenuItem>
                        <asp:MenuItem Text="Nastavitve" Value="Nastavitve">
                            <asp:MenuItem Text="Pisava" Value="Pisava"></asp:MenuItem>
                            <asp:MenuItem Text="Oblika" Value="Oblika"></asp:MenuItem>
                        </asp:MenuItem>
                        <asp:MenuItem Text="Pomoč" Value="Pomoč"></asp:MenuItem>
                    </Items>
                </asp:Menu>
             </asp:ContentPlaceHolder>
        </td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
        <td>
            <p>
                <strong>Website design by Me</strong></p>
            <asp:LoginStatus ID="LoginStatus1" runat="server" />
        </td>
    </tr>
</table>
</form>
