Expample of code

          <div class="column" style="display: inline-block;">
            <table>
              <tr>
                <td class="icon">
                  <a href="https://github.com/" target="_blank">
                    <img
                      alt="git"
                  /></a>
                </td>
              </tr>
            </table>
          </div>

Screenshot. There is selected word "class". But it's unvisible. Can't be recognized

I think this is a problem with the colorscheme. Specifically, gruvbox8 sets the Visual and MatchParen highlights to identical colors

:hi MatchParen
MatchParen     xxx cterm=italic ctermbg=6 gui=italic guibg=#665c54
:hi Visual
Visual         xxx ctermbg=242 guibg=#665c54

Can you change one or the other?

Thanks. Sure. Let me redirect this issue to gruvbox8 repo.

Thanks. Closing this then, as fixed in colorscheme upstream.
