With the code below, you've set the color of link text ONLY in
#seitenende and also ALL text in #footer and #pieddepage.
#footer, #pieddepage, #seitenende a:link {
color: #999369;
}
To set links only in these three divs you'd need this as a first line:
#footer a:link, #pieddepage a:link, #seitenende a:link
I've often wished there was a way to compact that type of code more,
as maybe you were trying to do. But I don't believe there is.
Hope that helps.
