ˆ is not same as ^

First is called Circumflex.

Second is called Caret.

I don't know which key you used to produce that but generally carets are shift+6. 

img[title^="product-"] {
  border-color: lightblue;
}

Ya. got it now. I am using mac air and with shift+6 it produces ˆonly. But if I press shift once afterˆ, it converts into ^

Thank you....
