/* Complete the challenge by writing CSS below */
img[title^="product-"] {
border-color: lightblue;

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

28,148 PointsI went and looked at the question and noticed it asked to us the title attribute selector for an image that starts with product-, you are only using product and I bet that's why it won't pass.

3,841 PointsDoes image have a title attribute? i don't see that it does. the ^ means for the browser to look at the image tag inside of a title attribute and the value of title should begin with product. But image does not have a title attribute? Is my thinking wrong?
Kevin Korte
28,148 PointsImages can have title attributes, yes. What it wants is a selector to for this HTML
<img src="path/to/img.jpg" title="product-101">

28,148 PointsYou're welcome, and don't be embarrassed. Tiny oversights like this are super common even for most veteran of coders.
