This sample code provides a simple "Hello, World!" text which prevents the user from selecting the content:
<span style="-moz-user-select: none;">
Hello, World!
</span>
This property is similar to the user-select property of CSS3.
When the 'none' value was applied to a heading element the content could still be selected.
According to the W3C, the "User agent's default style sheet may override this value. For example, user agents typically do not allow selection of the contents of a BUTTON element. [2] As the -moz-user-select was designed to mimic the user-select property, the same applies.
