Text in the footer area

Hello
I am new here and i am struggling with a problem i have!
I am trying to insert links in the footer area but without success!
The links shows up under the footer area but i want them in the footer area.This may be hard to solve because i cant show the page which isn’t online but i can post the css and php code of the footer.php and style.css

CSS

{
	width:100%;
	height:155px;
	background:url(images/sharp_footer.gif) bottom left repeat-x;
}
.footer_left
{
	width:100%;
	height:155px;
	background:url(images/sharp_left.gif) bottom left repeat-y;
}
.footer_right
{
	width:100%;
	height:155px;
	background:url(images/sharp_right.gif) bottom right repeat-y;
	position:relative;
}

Php footer

<div class="footer">
            	<div class="footer_left">
            	<div class="footer_right">
                	</div>
            	</div>
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>
    <?php wp_footer(); ?>
</body>
</html>
