How can you avoid selecting text in <DIV> 1

[Boomerang]

Hi,

In my HTML-file I have a <DIV> that acts like a sort of link (it collapse a block under the link so clicking this &quot;div&quot; will not change a page):

<div onmouseover=&quot;ChangeColor()&quot; onmouseout=&quot;ChangeColorBack()&quot; onclick=&quot;DisplayBlock(1);&quot; style=&quot;cursor:hand; background:#B0E0E6; font-weight:bold; margin-top:4px; width:300px; color:#656565;&quot;>MyDiscription</div>

But if I click on the <div> and then move my mouse, the text &quot;MyDiscription&quot; is selected after a &quot;onmouseup&quot; and stays selected.

How can I avoid this text being selected?

I already changed &quot;onclick&quot; to &quot;onmousedown&quot; but won't solve my problem,

please help,

Put this function in your code somewhere:

<script>
function SelectStart()
{
    window.event.cancelBubble = true;
    window.event.returnValue = false;
    return false;
}
</script>

And make sure your div has this:

onSelectStart="SelectStart()"

Let me know if this works or not.
