Hi Jesse, What I did to accomplish this is a custom "HighlightFeature" control. You can have it and a SelectFeature at the same time.
See an example : http://dev.openlayers.org/sandbox/adube/openlayers/examples/highlight-feature.html See an example with SelectFeature at the same time : http://dev4.mapgears.com/bdga/bdgaWFS-T.html Of course this is only a possible solution among many others. Others should have more ideas.
