When one selects an image in the fckeditor or ckeditor in webkit browsers ( chrome, safari ) and others like opera, the image is overlaid with a transparent gray mat, presumably as a visual cue to the user that the image is selected ( reference attached images ). The problem is this makes it impossible to apply any css effects to the image efficiently within the editor. This seems to be a browser default user agent style issue, as firefox actually works as desired. How can one target, override and disable this?
Annoying mask on image selection in editors on webkit / opera browsers
Preferred image selection without mask in editor on firefox / IE browsers
Alright, looks like the answer to this is just a matter of styling ::selection afterall.
