Prevent text selection after double click

Even though my events are properly prenting default actions, clicking in text and then Shift-clicking in other text is causing a selection. This is undesirable behaviour in this case, since I'm using Shift-click to multi-select these elements.

Is there something I need to do to specifically disable selection here?

EDIT: Found solution to my own problem here. Sorry for wasting people's time.

Add this CSS to the section where you want to prevent text-selection:

-webkit-user-select: none;
-khtml-user-select: none;
-moz-user-select: none;
-o-user-select: none;
user-select: none;

Earlier versions of IE require you to add the attribute onselectstart, something like this:

<div onselectstart="return false">
