Hi bryan, -^ tells the browser to match a piece of code that’s at the beginning of an attribute's value.

However, -$ matches a piece at the end of an attribute's value.

/* Complete the challenge by writing CSS below */

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

a[href$=".html"] { text-decoration: none; } And don't forget to remove the "-" in a[href$='.html']

Hope this helped you.

Note to anyone else that is having trouble with the code. The Workspace editor is very precise. If there is any or too much space between words, targets,etc it will return an incorrect result. I actually spent 10 minutes trying to figure out this problem and the issue was that I didn't have everything typed close enough together.
