302761 - "Select All" with CSS "-moz-user-select: none;" enabled

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: DOM: Selection, defect)

Description

[Vlad Dascalu]

A page with the "-moz-user-select: none;" CSS (like the one listed in the URL,
althought you probably want a more simple test-case) still has the option
"Select All" (in the Edit menu, or the right-click contextual menu) enabled.

Once clicked, the text is selected, dispite the CSS specification. You can then
Copy the text to the Clipboard, or right click and view the source for the
selected text, which is contrary to the CSS specification.

More, there is no way to disable the selection. Selecting another text doesn't
cut it, and pressing ESC has no luck.

This bug no longer reproduces. There is a select all option on the page, but it does not actually highlight anything or activate the "view selected source" option.
