Make HTML content not react on search (Ctrl+F)

Question

In my web app I have a layer with a static HTML content that displays a text.

When I do a search on a page (ctrl+F) and type some text that is contained in the layer

Answer 1

If all you want is for the highlighted text to be the same color as the surrounding text, you can change the highlight color in many browsers. Assuming the normal text is black on white,

::-moz-selection {
  background: white;
  color: black;
}
::-webkit-selection {
  background: white;
  color: black;
}​
::selection {
  background: white;
  color: black;
}

will hide the highlight, while keeping the normal select-functionality.
