In my web app the user can sometimes click the same button a number of times, skipping through messages and things, causing the to be selected.

This solution worked for me: http://chris-barr.com/entry/disable_text_selection_with_jquery/
$(function(){
$.extend($.fn.disableTextSelect = function() {
return this.each(function(){
if($.browser.mozilla){//Firefox
$(this).css('MozUserSelect','none');
}else if($.browser.msie){//IE
$(this).bind('selectstart',function(){return false;});
}else{//Opera, etc.
$(this).mousedown(function(){return false;});
}
});
});
$('.noSelect').disableTextSelect();//No text selection on elements with a class of 'noSelect'
});
