5,981 PointsSubstring Matching Attribute Selectors: Before and After
I am coding in the Coffee Cup HTML editor trying to use Gil's substring code on my website but it does not seem to work. I typed
a[href^="Home"] { border:3px solid tomato; }
for the CSS on my services page just to test it out but it doesn't seem to do anything. Here is my site, for reference: crescentwebdesign.com

11,322 PointsSo you're trying to make a border for home page link in navigation? Your home page filename is index.html, not Home.
a[href="index.html"] {
border:3px solid tomato;
}
