Create a selector that targets an img element if its title value begins with "product-". Set the border color to lightblue. I had put in a code

img[src*=" product-"]{ border colour: lightblue; }

however it is giving an error continuously.

style.css 
/* Complete the challenge by writing CSS below */

img[src*="product-"] {
  border-color: lightblue;
}

You're very close here! The challenge asks you to select the images that contain title that begins with product- . Your code selects images that have product- anywhere in the source attribute. Note the title and the src are two different things. And again that * means that it'll pick it if "product-" is anywhere in there. Not just if it begins with "product-". Take a look at what they're looking for.

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

We use the ^ to indicate something that starts with that string.
