Another way to select a limited area by color is to use the "Magic Wand" tool - the one that selects contiguous areas. (Next to the lasso in the toolbox). Whereas Select by color selects everything of the desired color, the magic wand selects only those pixels that are adjacent to the spot where you clicked, so it won't automatically give you multiple, discontinous selections.
