Am I missing something in this CSS substring challenge?

So I am sitting here trying to figure out what I am doing wrong, rewatching the videos over and over again, referring to the code I have written in workspaces in hopes of understanding what I am missing but I am starting to doubt my own intelligence .

So what am I missing? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Challenge Task: Create a selector that targets an img element if its title value begins with "product-". Set the border color to lightblue.

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

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

It's asking for you to create a rule based on the title attribute, not the src attribute.

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