Many websites use the onselectedtext()
method to pop up messages ("Read Aloud" or "Embed Quote") when selecting text on a webpage. I habitually select text to find my place when reading, so this misfeature annoys me. Is there any way to disable Firefox's onselectedtext()
support?
Note that Googling the issue is impossible due to 2,890,000 blogs vying to teach aspiring SEOers how to prevent human users from highlighting text on their websites.
