Hey there,
I'm stuck completing task 4, adding color:purple to the .footer div. It's weird b/c when I preview the page, it renders correct. I've tried to put the .footer & mark up within the a tag and within > a tags as well.
/* Write your SCSS code below. */
p {
a {
color: red;
.footer & {
color: purple;
}
}
a {
color: blue;
&:hover {
opacity: 0.5;
}
}
}

The challenge simply wants you to be more specific You should select the div with a class of footer not just any element with a class of footer.
It will pass whether you nest it in the a rule or the > a rule.

I followed your advice and used div.footer instead of .footer and it worked! Thanks!
