I'm trying to make it so certain text and images on an HTML page cannot be highlighted with the cursor, so it appears as if they're a part of the background.

Is there a way to make text unselectable on an HTML page?

First of all if I would like to know the intention behind this. If this is to prevent the user from copying your text and images then I think its impossible for you to make this happen. Once it is rendered to the client browser area then the whole thing comes under the control of the user.
For images not to be highlighted make them as background.
You can also place a transparent div on top of the area where you don't want the selection to occur. Position the div so that they will appear on top of the element with a higher stacking order. For a greater stacking order you can use the z-index property.

I'm trying to make a notification system where a small box appears in the top right corner of the screen.
However, I want the part of the screen that is under the notification to be clickable. As it is now, when the notification is there, you can't interact with what's under it. How can I make the area under it clickable? I've tried messing around with the z-index, position, and transform properties, but they still make the notification appear on top of the other content.
Use pointer-events: none on the popup box to allow clicks and cursor interactions to pass through it.
Note that this is not supported by IE10 or under, but that makes up a very small percentage of users.

Okay so I am trying to build a header that I like. I have been using bootstraps header and using my own CSS file to alter parts.
I have increased the size of the header, the colour etc. I have an icon on the left, nav buttons in the middle and social icons on the right. The social icons on the right keep getting in the way when the site is resized so I used the hidden tag to remove them at a certain media size, but even though you can't see them you the site still acts like they are there. Is there a way to solve this?
Here's the thing.
display: none removes the element from the document flow.
visibility: hidden does not remove the element from the document flow.
So, whenever you're trying to hide an element without some weird document flow happening, use display: none;
Try using display:none instead of visibility:hidden.
Instead of visibility:hidden use display:none in the css. On display:none, the site will not act like the tag is there.

Ignore mouse interaction on overlay image

I have an HTML image with a "play button" image over it using standard position relative/absolute techniques for overlaying.
The underlying image has a hyperlink and the overlaying image does not. This however makes it impossible to click the hyperlink when the mouse is over the overlay image.
Is there any way to prevent the overlay image from "obstructing" the hyperlink in the underlying image, except from hyperlinking the overlay image as well?
Make use of the z-index.

For example, set the image to z-index: -1 or the link to z-index: 1000

HTML <img> or CSS background-image? Which to choose? [duplicate]

When to use IMG vs. CSS background-image?
(31 answers)

Should I use the <img> tag or should I use a div with css background-image?
If you want the image displayed normally on the page, then i would suggest using
img because it can moved positioned to your prefered area alot more accurately, but the background-image should only be used if you want the image to be the background of your page or of an object.
If you need create a kind of tumbs you must use <img> .And for background use background-image.
All browsers not interpreted the css rules in the same way.
Sorry for my english =/
Well, is your image a background image? If so, then use background-image. That is what it is made for, so you should use it.
If not, then use <img>
Background images usually have elements on top of them, such as text, for example.
Images are generally elements of their own, like blocks on the page, such as a <div> for example.
Having said that, there are some "advantages" with using <img> vs. background-image. For example, background-image will disable the users ability to drag and drop the image onto their desktop. This is not to say that they cannot save the image, they can, very easily, this is just one difference between the two.
