Subhash's Guide Cursor Effects!

By default when a visitor brings his mouse pointer over a link, it turns to the hand shape. How will it be if the cursor changes to something else?

Before I proceed further, it is my duty to tell you that this CSS script will work only in IE and NS6.0 and later.

To make the cursor cross-hair, just insert this code:

<a href="link.html" style="cursor:crosshair">My Link</a>

The code when effected will produce:

My Link

Just include in style attribute: cursor:cursor-name. Cursor names are listed below:

Cursor Name	Effect
crosshair	My Link
e-resize	My Link
help	My Link
move	My Link
wait	My Link

Page Wide Change

To effect page wide change of cursor effects, add this to your head section(or external stylesheet):

<style type="text/css">
a {cursor:cursor-name}
</style>
