The ::selection psedo class does not work on text inputs nor text areas. Allow this is important since the default selection color might not be useful. http://www.plexode.com/cgi-bin/eval3.py#ht=%3Cstyle%3E%0Ainput%5Btype%3Dtext%5D%20%7B%0A%20%20background%3A%20highlight%3B%0A%7D%0Ainput%5Btype%3Dtext%5D%3A%3Aselection%20%7B%0A%20%20background-color%3A%20red%3B%0A%20%20color%3A%20white%3B%0A%7D%0A%3C%2Fstyle%3E%0A%3Cinput%20type%3Dtext%3E&ohh=1&ohj=1&jt=&ojh=1&ojj=1&ms=100&oth=0&otj=0&cex=1
Has anything happened to this since it's been reported?

Comment on attachment 231262 [details] Patch View in context: https://bugs.webkit.org/attachment.cgi?id=231262&action=review The substance of this patch looks OK, although I’m concerned it’s going to be a bit slow to walk up the shadow tree for every single selected node. Style wise it needs a bit of work. > Source/WebCore/ChangeLog:4 > + https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38943 > + https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=132804 Need bug titles here, not just bug URLs. > Source/WebCore/ChangeLog:14 > + * rendering/RenderObject.cpp: > + (WebCore::RenderObject::selectionBackgroundColor): > + (WebCore::RenderObject::selectionColor): > + (WebCore::RenderObject::getSelectionPseudoStyle): > + * rendering/RenderObject.h: Need comments explaining the changes.

Is it actually important to skip this code for anonymous renderers? Is there a good way to make sure we’ve tested that case? > Source/WebCore/rendering/RenderObject.cpp:1528 > + if (ShadowRoot* root = node()->containingShadowRoot()) { > + if (root->type() == ShadowRoot::UserAgentShadowRoot) { > + if (Element* shadowHost = node()->shadowHost()) > + return shadowHost->renderer()->getUncachedPseudoStyle(PseudoStyleRequest(SELECTION)); > + } > + } This code should use m_node. rather than node()-> > Source/WebCore/rendering/RenderObject.h:273 > + PassRefPtr<RenderStyle> getSelectionPseudoStyle() const; This function should not have the word get in its name. See the WebKit coding style guidelines for a discussion of this. The function name getUncachedPseudoStyle does not follow WebKit coding style, and the mistake should not be repeated with this new function. This declaration should be farther down in the class, in the last private section; this earlier set of private functions is a bit of an anomaly and this function should not be added to it. I suggest putting it right near the selectionColor function declaration, maybe right after it. > Source/WebCore/rendering/RenderObject.h:274 > public: There should be a blank line between the function and the "public" below it (but that won't matter since we're moving it). > LayoutTests/ChangeLog:4 > + https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38943 > + Need bug title here.

Also, I think it would be easier to read the test if the entire style attribute was on a single line even if the line got a little long.

Why doesn’t this call select immediately? Is there some reason to wait for a load event?

Unfortunately you took my direction too literally. It’s great to also have the test describe what success looks like. I was suggesting including both.
Comment on attachment 231310 [details] Patch This is OK. Would be even better if you addressed the last two comments above.

Can you take a look at my last patch (#4) and review it? You set "review +" for patch #3, but I made some changes and attached new patch. If it's OK - how to commit it in webkit tree?
Ping!
