User-select cant be disabled about react-simple-code-editor HOT 9 CLOSED

@kitten you would still want the user to be able to select the text, so we wouldn't want to disable it on both. from reading again, I think the issue here is on IE, where it's changing the color of the hidden input text on selection.

I think we'd need to do something like this for IE:

.editor::selection  {
  color: transparent;
  background-color: lightgrey;
}

Isn't user-select: none enough on the textarea? What's the issue?

@satya164 Wouldn't user-select have to be applied to both pre and textarea? Might be simple enough to set it to inherit on both, so that the container can receive user-select and can pass it on to both

Just pushed a branch: https://github.com/satya164/react-simple-code-editor/tree/%40satya164/ie-selection

I haven't tested it yet. Can you try it and lemme know if it fixes the issue? @manuelc2209

@manuelc2209 I have tested it on IE and it is now working fine for me. Please take a look at master when you have time and lemme know if it works for you.
