Specification

https://www.w3.org/TR/css-pseudo-4/#highlight-selectors

Summary

Chromium currently checks all selection highlight colors against the text color and inverts the highlight color if it matches the text. Hence, author-defined ::selection CSS properties may be modified by the browser despite explicit author intent. For example, a CSS rule "::selection { color: cyan; background: cyan; }" the background is inverted and red color is used. In https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/6150 the CSS Working Group resolved to disallow the chromium behavior. We propose to implement this spec change and bring chromium into compatibility with other browsers.

Risks



Interoperability and Compatibility

Low risk. Gecko and WebKit both respect author colors from ::selection already. The change makes chromium compatible. It is highly unlikely that authors are depending on chromium behavior given it is hard to predict and the number of people who have looked at the workarounds. Note the workarounds (adding some transparency) will not be broken by the change.



Gecko: Shipped

WebKit: Shipped

Other signals:

WebView application risks

Does this intent deprecate or change behavior of existing APIs, such that it has potentially high risk for Android WebView-based applications?

None



Debuggability

Improved because the rendered result now matches the colors specified by authors and reported in DevTools.



Will this feature be supported on all six Blink platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux, ChromeOS, Android, and Android WebView)?

Yes

Is this feature fully tested by web-platform-tests?

Yes

Anticipated spec changes

Open questions about a feature may be a source of future web compat or interop issues. Please list open issues (e.g. links to known github issues in the project for the feature specification) whose resolution may introduce web compat/interop risk (e.g., changing to naming or structure of the API in a non-backward-compatible way).

None
