Any idea on how to change textarea selection color?

Question

I've tried this, but it won't work (in Chrome and IE) in case of textarea :(

::-moz-selection {
  background: #b3d4fc;
  text-shadow: none;
}
::selection {
  background: #b3d4fc;
  text-shadow: none;
}

Are there ary way to make it possible?
CSS or jQuery any how?

This is only supported in Firefox (and Safari?).

You can do a workaround. Instead of textarea use div with contenteditable.
