Text selection style going to the edge of a webpage

Question

I've been looking around but there doesn't seem to much help on this.

Basically I've adjusted my text selection to a different colour, easy done. However, I was wondering how to code the selection to select to the edge of the page rather than just the text on it's own.

I've attached a screenshot of a working example to show you what I mean.

thanks

I would suggest css style:

display: block;

please add a code example / jsfiddle what exactly you have tried so far... thanks (and maybe inline-block is better for you than block?) – jBear Graphics Jun 01 '14 at 20:24
