Hi, You intentions are not clear. When I read your comments in the code I get the impression you want to stop the browser highlighting the text they are selecting by clicking and dragging across the page. Is this correct?

What outcome are you trying to achieve? Is it to stop a user copying the text, or just to visually not show the selection?

This second question, “Can someone tell me why the div is square, I think it should be empty div because I only set the width, not the height.” is straightforward.

div.style.width = div.style.height =${num}px``

You are setting the width to the height, which you are setting to your number in pixels. So yes, you are setting the width and the height.
