Thread-topic: WebView clears selection when it resigns first responder
I had this same problem, and I got the behavior you want by overriding - (BOOL) maintainsInactiveSelection on the WebView to return YES. This made it keep a selection (although gray, not the usual blue highlight) even when moving the focus away from the WebView.

Subject: WebView clears selection when it resigns first responder
I'm noticing that the default behavior in a web view is to clear the
selection when it resigns first responder. NSTextView does not do
this. Is there a way to prevent this behavior?
I've had a look at the editing delegate method
shouldChangeSelectedDOMRange but as far as I can tell it is not called
when the view resignes first responder even though the selection is
changing.
