Text Selection Color

A lesser know property of CSS3 is the selection property. This allows you to change the properties of text when selected so you can highlight it in any way you want

/* Webkit */
::selection {
        background: #000; 
        }
/* Firefox */
::-moz-selection {
        background: #000; 
}

This sentence should highlight in black. And this in red.

Don't forget that some browsers won't show this as it's CSS3
